Ok, so today i bought a 6-speed manual trany for the 4.2 and looks like i did nto calculate good when i bought the engine.I just had to pay V$800 for the trany.Now the whole engine swap went from V$845 to V$1645 without the 1600 i have to pay to CA to swap it in.Bit pricey but now i have to deal with it.Other than that i spent another V$100 today on variouse sanding papers and some filler and other stuff to fix the rust on the MK2, this will be on the run proces just so i can protect it from rusting even more.will try to match paint later on, i hope.









I will need to change the suspension or i will roll this car.It has so much body roll...and the tyres even thought they have good amount of wear, the DOT is unsafe on the street, so those are just few things i will need to pick up next.






P.S. still waiting for my new wheels...looks like delay with shipping...as always... :facepalm:

Added 53 minutes later:

As i was writing the post above and published it the delivery guy came with my new wheels...Rotiform AVV's in 18x9. HYYYYPE!!!!!!! No words, just see for yourself!!!!!





Used Golf just to see how they look.To big for it for sure, but will be perfect for the B5 once its done.
