I'm rolling again after having the tranny rebuilt. It's going to have to go back, since it doesn't shift out of first until 3000 RPM. Great for performance, but not for city street driving.
Issues I'm confronting:
1. I have to fiddle with the steering wheel for several minutes before I find the sweet spot that lets me turn the ignition key. I would just as soon disconnect this feature as I'm not really worried about someone stealing it.
2. Both front seat cushion supports (the black rubber like support the seat cushion floats on) have failed. I can see that working of the seats will be much easier if they are out of the car. So...does anyone know the size of the torex socket I'm going to need to gets these bolts out?
I decided to stop being cheap and just bought a set. So I'll be pulling the passenger seat this weekend and will somehow reconstruct the bottom support.
Next will be dealing with the steering wheel/ignition issue. Somehow I can't think that it's all that complex of a mechanism, but as nobody has responded I'll dive in and see.
