A new twist on the Manual Swap....

I wanted to try something a little...different...so I made it a 5-speed REAR wheel drive car....with the stock 3.54 LSD rear diff....

SO it keeps the better highway RPMs and is a manual tranny.

I've updated to WRX motor mounts while I was in there, and an Excedy CLutch & PP.

So what do you think...?

I haven't decided if I want to keep it like this, or go back to AWD on it...

(Rear Wheel Burnouts are cool..... ...and I grew up driving Firebirds, which is sort of what it drives like now)

Give me your thoughts...

I've gotten some thoughts from the crew over at XT6.net, but figured this is where I'd get the most response....since it is in a SVX after all
