98' Blueberry 🫐

Alrighty so got both a bad blown up transmission with about 95% of the internals still intact so I will be saving it.

Doing a video on this one. I might be the first to have one recorded for the FWD transmission

Also popped open my own to find out what’s up with mine. Note I did not have any engagement issues or grinding on any gears. So this will be mainly an input shaft seal and put it all together.

I’m also doing a XTD stage 2 clutch $250 for the whole kit is not bad. I had some good shifts with XTD. But yet I don’t launch the car only street driving

Here are some pics of them. I’m waiting on the parts to arrive so we can put it all back!

Would love to see a video on the trans,
I find it interesting and motivating, the only YT videos I know of for these trannies are old ,grainy, low quality or in Russian.


Great build !!!

Where are you getting the parts for the transmission? It’s only a matter of time before I have to rebuild one

Brembos finished!

My evo brembos are ready to be installed. Had to paint strip and sand blast to get all the layers of different color paints on the calipers

I had built this DIY powder coating unit from a 25¢ bbq grill. I added a heating element, with some heat insulation. It holds a solid 400°. Greatest thing is the space is able to do medium size projects like valve covers.


the driver side rear had some issues with a stripped threads easy fix. All other threads are good. Seals were also in good condition.

The during the bleeding process the boot on the outer passenger piston seal gave out. Replaced with the old one with no signs of leaks it was in good condition to begin with.

The color I chose goes well with the themes I had going on. It’s prismatic powders candy purple, I used an epoxy flake to make it all sparkly then clear coated.

With the brembos done, the front will bolt up nicely, need to cut the heat shields and have proper bolts to line it up
