ANOTHER east coast 3s! biggrin.gif Im so lucky to live where i do hahaa have had the privilege to see like 6 3s swaps in person biggrin.gif
Great progress, hopefully next summer i can start my swap smile.gif
So ill sure be asking you some questions smile.gif seeing as it will be my first swap as well



Lucky...I've only seen like 5 other 6gcs period...let alone 3s swaps. My celi will be the first 6gc 3s swap I've seen. I mean of course I've seen 3s's in Mr2's and other alltracs/GT FOURs (including mine) but as far as 6gcs go, no love in the NW. frown.gif

this is what she looks like right now.. ahh how things will change biggrin.gif





i also have SS-III replica splittters for it (already painted) and OEM side skirts that i bought off of dustin and stef. ill get pics later (skirts still need to b fitted and painted)

little update. water pump and timing belt is just about done, just need to put the tension peice back in place, then bundle it back up, throw the alternator and a/c pump back on and will be a few steps closer to the ultimate goal!

alrighttt so heres whats going on with the swap. the clutch came friday, but no one was home to recieve it there for it is supposed to come today, hopefully.

i finished fixing the crack in the oil pan, i used JB weld and im making a brace for the back side of the pan and will provide support for the crack when i bolt the tranny up.

so this week im going to put the flywheel and clutch on and get some oil and a filter and i think.. i think ill be ready to start the swap, gotta make a set date with some people so we can start the swap. a few weeks we will get this show on the roaddd, cant wait!
