I really likes how you noted milage for all these mods. its something i wish i did for my own brz.

There's a lot of documented bad decisions in that list.

Thanks haha, i try to keep it organized

that transmission absolutely will not work in this car

Indeed.
You can sometimes modify the corvette transmissions into the correct “format” but it’s easier and cheaper to buy the right one in the first place. The amount of time and money I spent on modifying the C7 7-speed probably wasn’t worth it but at least it’s unique, this one looks like the C5 Z06 t56 which isn’t that great.

See i guess i forgot to mention. It already has the shaft changed because it came out of a ls swapped supra. So i ordered a bellhousing for $250. Now i just need a tailend and bam its ready. Thats why i went with that tranny

Members Car Journals section?

How did you blow your FA20?

No clue. Heard a tink tink tink BANG. then i saw smoke. sounded like a bolt hitting sheet metal. no previous signs

Motor goes in sunday
