Hey guys I was wondering if anyone had used this company before? Any feed back would be great.

I Don't know why. But everybody's always talking about their STI or That guys EVO, I think I'll stick with my old, but reliable AmC. Did I ever tell you I was Full blooded Eagle?

That looks pretty. I for one would like to know. Without knowing or searching there site i wonder if they do the sr4? Supposedly it breaks the forks meaning the sr4 is supposedly weak on the forks. Personally i have a sr4, i can jam those gears for a squeal and run. I however replaced that stupid bushing for a peice of teflon tubing. It works!

Btw i am hijacking since we are slow. Its called stir the pot. Or something. Administrative right. Haha. Kind of lets roll with it. Hate me later, your all the best.

I have the automatic, wanted to convert to stick since I got the car 6 yrs ago. Only problem is I just found out my friend bought the wrong trans 7 yrs ago and there's no way of returning it.  :-\

Going to stick requires a stick crossmember or really customized one to fit..

Does it matter wether it's an sr4 crossmember or does it have to be for a t5?
