          Simple, make a full maintenance how to. I will be making one soon for the M42.

          It will include gaskets, seals, breaks, belts and a few bushings.

          It will teach detail and mechanics.

                  Thread derail in 5 posts! Hodamn!

                  Shifter rebuild guide would be helpful. I'm researching it right now and all I get is "go under the car and replace everything between the hole in the tranny tunnel and the tranny selector rod.

                    I'd do something like doing a brake job and putting in braided lines or something of that sort.

                      Honestly when you look under there, all it is is a circlip which you slide out and then you can pop it loose w/ 2 screwdrivers from the top and it will come out. Very simple. And if you do the actual shift linkage that's a circlip at the other end and a nut is all to get it all out. Very simple. check understeer.com for a full writeup w/ pics.

                        Thanks, that site was helpful.

                        I might as well take some photos of my own when I do this...

                            I also want to see the ebay/IE header dyno run.

                            A rear subframe complete refresh would be nice, subframe mounts, trailing arms, wheel bearings.
