RE: another new one

I was about to ask the exact same thing...Ngoti8tor is back?!?!

But yeah, as the proud owner of a car almost exactly like yours (just 1 year newer, but a 5sp) I would say if you are going to swap in a new tranny also swap the engine. The d16y8 isnt a bad engine, but you will notice a HUGE power gain if you dropped in a b series engine, like say a b16a2 or b18c1.
