Compared to the way the blue hatch used to feel its errie how similar it is. Because of the fewer miles on the chassis it seems a little tighter. Its somewhat noiser because I had to remove a fair amount of sound deadening during the install of the wiring harness and dash stuff, but not cazy noisy.

As a side note...the blue hatch is going to be picked up soon...junk man is grabbing it, no one wanted it as a drift missile...

I'd like to do a 240sx 6spd...but i hear the s15's 6spd is "weak"(? a realitive term i'm sure) and over priced. I spotted a vq trans with a KA bell housing welded to it in the KAT.org Weld and Fab section today. That would be killer. I know the camaro's 6spd 6th gear is an underdrive type, something like a 0.50:1.

I'm having dinner with Jeff the CNC guy tomorrow. I'm going to ask that he just cut the plate for me. I think he wants to engineer the whole thing, but all i need is the plate cut and who ever I tap to do the welding of the intake will have to deal with that headache.

I've seen KA intakes recently on Ebay that could be modified for my application...designing the "hot pipe" for the supercharger to the intercooler should prove interesting.
