so decided to got to the junk yard with some friends to help them find parts for there honda's. well i split off and browse around alittle. i about shit myself when i found a 97-99 RS sitting in front of me. well in my efforts to return my GS back to running order. i ran over to see that the car was an auto. decided that maybe i could salvage the headlights and if i'm lucky the taillights are still intact. sure enough it's all there and in decent shape.
on the way home i picked up a powerball and already have some plastx at the house. so hopefully the headlights are able to be saved. i'll post up once i've tried the powerball.

The mtx NV-T350 trannies without the bellhousing are the reliable ones look for when shopping for the atx to mtx swap.

my car was already a 5 speed so all i'll have to do is pull the bellhousing from my busted trannie and i'll have two complete trannies. $150 for both of them.

yeah thank god there are a couple of these in San Diego. i know finding these parts will be alittle easier here vice back in NC. now the only parts i have left to salvage is sideskirts and a front bumper and my body will be complete. other thing i'll need after that is springs and struts.
