No Baby..Its on!!!


here is a pic of all the goodies:

 

make sure you have a functional car to the hospital :0

 

i love that turbo!

 

<<<<< Jealous!!

I can try to make it

 

i defenately want to be there for the rest of the install. keep us posted on the wife and let us know for sure when its going down

 

i will be in ATL that weekend. think i'm staying with greg, but we don't have a whole bunch of plans so i'll at least stop by for some moral support and to say hey to everyone!

is this gonna be at your place rick?

 

It will be at my place as the car in not mobile, obviously. What day is good for you guys Sat or Sun?

 

either or for me. looking forward to turning a wrench or two with yous guys

 

I will come to either.......

 

Sexy! :dirty: I want in!

 

I will definately be there, post up the date and I'll take off from work

 

yayz... maybe I can actually make it to this one.

 

I'm in for any day.


Btw Please don't destroy the pallet the tranny is on. I may be needing it.

 

You do know that you cannot use the Stock 5 speed shifter linkage? I don't see the SPT shortshifter I had listed in my parts list.

 

I may be able to stop by to see this, sounds like fun to me!!

 

me tooz, i want inz...beer?

 

pick a day and i can get off work . again beer?

 

YES :beer:

AND YES:beer:

 

I would go ahead and buy the kartboy gc8 shortshifter to go with the SPT linkage. Shortened 50% throw

 

I got the Kartboy SS with all bushings including TiC. The part # you had listed was for the SPT SS did that come with all the linkage or was there a specific part # for that? If so can you post up the part # for just the linkage that I can use with the Kartboy SS?

EDIT:
Okay I will go with Saturday the 23rd a week from tomorrow, that way one less day for the baby to drop and an extra day if we run over.

 

Thw SPT isn't just a short shifter. It comes with the reverse mechanism and linkage and the whole nine yards.....that Kartboy SS is useless as the SPT one is the same thing!

 

umm...yeah...Rick's a n00b.

 

Rick did you buy the kartboy SS made for wrx or rs? If you're using the SPT linkage you have to use the RS kartboy SS.

 

if he got the KB for WRX or RS hes screwed as he needs the 6MT specific one along with all the other tiny and large bits for the 6MT linkage set and reverse lockout mechanism.

 

The RS one is the same one for the 6MT

edit:
Nevermind, that's just for the 5MT with the SPT kit

 

Ummm, no. The RS doesnt require reverse lockout. The 6MT does.

I've seen and installed the RS KB before.

 

However, judging by the pic, it IS the 6MT shifter and the shifter bushing set is correct.

 

Yup...Where the hell were you when I had the "which SS should I use"?

Oh well, trying to get in touch with Sakari to return the Kartboy.

 

wondering what the hell you were doing...plus wondering when you were going to order the subaru from me. :hsnono: :rofl:

 

We were just a PM away!

 

With shipping you were too high..

 

i see how it is. I would have DRIVEN the stuff down...

 

Okay, ordered the Subaru SPT SS.


YES BEER WILL BE THERE! Not Becks though no one would touch it.

 

Newcastles? yummy!

 

If there's some Bass, you might could convince me to attend.

Well....Newcastle might work as well.

 

pffft no one needs reverse haha. looks like fun rick

Oh and I do believe that your going to break your new borns neck in that thing if your not careful

 

if you dont have the reverse cable hooked up, you can go into reverse at any time. Bad idea when you go too far on a speed shift to 6th or if you miss the 4th gate and then somehow end up going past the 6th gate then into reverse.

I've seen it happen on a 5MT on an attempt to pull 4th. UN-good results.

 

Bumptizle
Updated original post with addy, phone #, etc...

 

cool, i'm planning on being there sometime around lunchish....

 

This is going to be exciting, lol. It makes me want to order something right now, just to install!

 

I'll be there if Ped will be and if my struts make it on time.

 

Bupity bump this thang is still on. who's coming and what are you installing?

 

didn't see it in the picture, but you do have the 6MT shift fork, right?

 

^^yup it is under the wrap and comes with the tranny.

 

ok cool. Having dome a 6MT in my bugeye, just wanted to make sure you had everything.

 

As of right now I am swapping my exhaust! Removing my 3" Invidia axleblack (maybe the midpipe also) and re-installing my 2.5" w/ STI midpipe. No more loudness, lol.

 

greg and i will be there probably around 1ish. we're not installing anything, just there for moral support.


ha, and maybe to turn a wrench or two.

 

this is like 10 minutes from my house, if anyone needs moral support lemme know.

 

ok, I'll be leaving in about 15 minutes.

Call me if you guys are done already.
