    Haha, do try!

    I'm STILL waiting for my transmission to get built. I'm hoping it's done soon. I gotta get the motor back in and everything hooked up.. Judging by the time frame, I'll probably have to slap it back in and hope for the best that everything is working aright. I made a ton of random changes, additions and fixes this year. And I'm not going to have much time to test anything out/break in new parts and troubleshoot if anything goes wrong haha. Shall be good times in the up coming weeks…

    I want to have the motor running full synth & tuned before I go. Would suck to bring the car there still breaking in the engine.

    Hrmmm, I should probably hop on registering too… I always figured I could be a cheap ass and just show up without registering and just hang out for the week.

    Count me out, can't do it and I'm not rushing it because I'm pouring way too much money into this build…sorry guys! If I have some extra cash/time I'm down to bring the subaru down, but depends how things go. I would feel stupid bringing a subaru to BZF.

    I'm risking it so bad right now. Blowing almost all my savings getting this damn transmission built, and I still don't have it yet, unexpected costs and delays keep popping up..Time is quickly running out. If the car isn't ready which it will/must be! I will be forced to bring down the Fusion.. Yeah, id be silly, but I have to be there!

    what do you need for the trans? i have a gear casing from an R30A. it was fine. all it needs is to have the bellhousing put back on it.

    I'm still toying with the idea of going. Calgary to Denver = 16 hours, Denver to Branson = 12 hours. Leave Wednesday morning, arrive in Branson Thursday afternoon. I just have to convince the powers that be to let me take the whole hitch off work because it's right in the middle of a nine-day stretch up north. Man. I REALLY want to go.

    Haha, yeah. I have a complete 30A with the case removed too, pretty solid unit. The OD Bushing shattered on the guy when he was re-installing it, I've since sourced the part through a very long, and stressful day. I could have taken it off the spare 30A, but it would have required a full disassembly, and pressing out the shafts and such again. The cost of having him tear down another trans would be far more than a new part, even though 2x cross country overnight shipping does add up hah.

    Got our room reserved. Not sure if I'm going to register this year. Not likely my Z would be in the car show even if I can get it running in time.
