Thought tranny was going to tuck in w/out cutting?

there is no way
even on a s2000 swap theres cutting involved

im just anxious to see how is this car going to drive, i've been trying to mess with anything import other than honda or toyota and this hit the spot soo good

Sweet just went through all 8 pages... and im ready for 8 more keep it up.

[toycar]

I didn't think the tranny would fit either but earlier in the thread the op said it would...

[toycar]

actually I won't, believe it or not the only part I will have to cut as far as the trans is about 6-8 inches on the hump because the trans is small enough to fit in the hole

I guess I miss understood what he was implying here

[almostJDM]

he was saying I would probably have to make a trans tunnel like that v8 cb

[almostJDM]

car is in flintstone mode, I cut out the trans tunnel today, I'll have pics up later tonight

[CB7H22Los]

can't wait!!

heres a few photos of this weekends progress


this is a rough cut,well and started to cut out the spot for the starter bulge on the trans, that sharpy mark a few inches above the hole was where i thought i was going to need to cut but found out it was too high, once the trans mount is touching ill adjust the hole in the firewall




trans test fit, I was just measuring side to side fitment here and its good to go got about 1-2" of gap on either side




better shot of clearance on sides, I didnt have to make it wider at all from the bell housing back all i did was cut the hump off and grind it smooth




still gotta raise the trans up a few inches but I am not going to until I get either a trans adapter for my jack or some pieces of wood, I'm gonna raise it up until the trans mount touches the bottom
