Pics aren't that great but they are all I have so far.
Just some wiring left to do, most of the parts are now installed. Clutch lines, master cylinder, brake pedal, clutch pedal, transmission and clutch are all installed.
The shop is now working on wiring the ignition and then the ECU back in (had to switch to a 2004 manual engine harness and am reflashing the ECU back to a 2004). Because of the engine harness switch I need to go with old style o2 sensors on the exhaust manifolds. The wideband ones will not work.
Once it's all done I'll get a parts list assembled.

That's what I'm doing. Can't do a rev up ECU so I had to do an 04

Had a fully built auto with valve body and torque converter upgrade. These don't do anything to help overheating on the track, even with the largest cooler I could possibly fit on my car.

Just wanted to do a little update...
Don't have any new pics right now but all the mechanics are done. Clutch lines routed, pedals installed, shifter installed, drift shaft installed. We ran into a problem with the shifter fork not working but it turns out I had the wrong throw out bearing and sleeve. Got that taken care of thanks to Carbonetics quick shipping.
Just now waiting for a new ECU which should be here on Friday. Once that is in they're hoping to get the car started this weekend, do some clean up and HOPEFULLY be done next week. Will update with pics sometime this week or this weekend.

Everything is being done to OEM quality. Of course parts can fail but that can happen with any factory car.

Btw people have been asking how much this is all costing. Once it's all done I'll figure it out but I'm not going to be posting it publicy. If you want to know send me a PM. I'll reply to you once the car is done 100%.
