Lol..

Sorry for the lack of pictures. Time is running out and the camera has been taken south for school.

Drained the tranny fluid.. YUCK. 40% of the fluid was tranny fluid.. the other 60%.. not quite sure. I think it looks and smells like ATF.

Anyway, replaced the fluid with cheapo Canadian Tire 75w90, and 90% of the transmission noise went away. Took her for a spin with my dad. (could probably solve the problem with Redline MT-90, oh well.)

No problem doing anything in the car now, very little noise, cruising at 4000 rpm doesn't bust your eardrums either. Car spins on a dime (when we wanted it to) and turns sharp.

Power is smooth all the way from take off.

I leave for school on Friday at noon. Guess that means I'll get to enjoy the car for a single day (not even a full day!).

Still to do... but not urgent:
  • Distributor rebuild
  • Redo Interior
  • Fix doors & locks
  • Gut interior & weight reduction????
Woot. 8)
