dump the tranny. im sure youve heard it plenty of times but you arent going to have ANY fun with that setup with a LIMP auto tranny... i dont even know if that will hold up? not sure though.

lol i know, i'm sure i aint gonna have that much fun with it but i dont have a good gsr/itr/or si tranny right now nor i have the money for one, and from what i understand i have to weld the motor support bracket foward some.
i'm not sure how i'm gonna tune it. thats why i'm asking........ i dont even know what wiring harness to use.
