i plan to swap the tranny first...

Tranny Swap-
5spd tranny si/ex tranny (from a 92-95 hatch?)
d-series shift linkages
pedal assembly

hyd. master lines
lines from clutch master cylinder to slave cylinder

you should be able to do it yourself. but try to get a Y8 headgasket, its thinner, so it will bump your CR, and also try to get a Y8 inake manifold. it flows alot better.

If u plan on running boost, definetly get a thicker headgasket to LOWER compression. Oh and my advice would be to get some ARP headstuds while uve got the head off. Theyve got more muscle than stockers.......and are like 100 bucks.
