Six Speed Manual in a Grand Prix!

SO WHAT HAPPENED NEXT? this is like reading a great book. I just finished a chapter and now I NEED to know what happened next! Did the axle get repaired and is it right? Did you have to ride your bike in the snow? Arrrgh! Im dying to see this thing in action.

Dude, you get a permanent stainless steel powder coated man-card for this when it's done. I bet you could even get some mod shops to 'chip in' for some of the final electrical issues and what not.

Good luck!

(hmmm... wonder if I could get a 6 speed getrag in my 04 and change it to RWD at the same time.....)
 


a guy on ls1tech was trying to convert his GP to rwd.... kinda struggled with that one, cost more than to purchase an F-Body LSx
 
As far as the axle, I'm still waiting. I was able to borrow a friends truck for a while, but now I am back to my bike. I am pretty upset that it is taking so long to get my axle.
 
I heard back from RCV Performance. Everything is going fine, and I will have the axle within a few days.

$2000 eh???? I think I may def invest in this, I have a beater car as well while this goes through. If I took off work for a week how long do you think this would take?

Also you think I could use some other manual transmissions? Any suggestions? I want one that would be good for performance, not sure if the G6 6 speed is any good or not?

Is that the one out of the GXP

Also when you say the swap could've cost $2000 does that include the Used Trans?
 


$2000 will require shopping around for a long time for some used parts. I actually got my tranny new for $375 shipped. I'm not sure what trim level the tranny is out of.
 
i may your help in the walkthrough... expect me to ask you a lot of questions as i start pulling parts together.... i love my talon cuz of the 5 speed... and the GP with a 6 speed would make my life almost!
 
I just found this post. THAT is amazing. I have been involved in creative engineering and as fun as it sounds at first it can make you loose your hair. Get some videos. Did youget better fuel milage or performance from this swap? That was way cheap for a new trans.
 
Somewhere around here there is a video from the inside of the car. When I find it I'll edit the first post I made and include a link to the video.
 


wow...i dont think i can even think of any other words to say. this is just flat out insane!!! amazing....wow!! yeah, fuel milage increase? better shifts...no more lag..sounds like a plan, especially for 2-3k!! how is school going, been falling asleep in class, worrying about your car? lol
 
who knows...his car was for sale, i seen it in other forums and on the interweb...so you might be able to get lucky and buy it..i think he was asking 7k...
