just cause thats a good bit of rust but you got it fixed already. :thumbs up

and i thought you were gonna jack the 5spd out of one to put in the other, that threw me. thats why i was saying why not just put your money/effort into the one that already had the standard

ok well the reason i am swapping to manual is when i baught the car the trany was ok bug very slugish and would waste alot of gas it would take forever to shift. so i replaced it with another transmision which in total cost me 300 and a set of ls meshies i had just hand polished. so this new auto tranny was fine for about a month and a half it soon started to make a grinding noise when you would put it in reverse soon after it started to make a whinding noise when you would turn on the car or put it in reverse at first it was once ina while but then it just completely stopped taking reverse and then the shifter wouldnt read that it was in park so my key always gets stuck in the ignition. so i realy dont feel like spending another 300 on a trany and paying someone to install again. so i baught a complete 2dr donor car running for basicaly a axle master cylynder and some door speakers i paid more to tow it than to get the car i had the parts laying around. so now i have the complete swap ove except the auto to manual mount. my boy said hell help me swap it over and if i help hell do it for 200 bux so all in all its cost me 80 for the conversion mount and 200 for labor. so its way cheaper to convert and i hate automatic so its a win win

oh my god.... I actually felt like crying when I saw the first pics, no teggy should be in that condition! I would have screamed at you to stop what your doing and let it die in peace, beg you to get a better conditioned integra.. but you have done such a bloody good job man, that thing looks so sweet, so good to see somebody take such pride into their car.
Awesome job.
