Hello all,
. . . . Someone mentioned replacing the gear oil in their manual transmission with Redline Gear oil and then the transmission had a much smoother shift action. My transmission at 62K miles is still notchy. What weight did you use?
GOD Bless and Thanks,

I am on the second engine and trans! 4.5 months out of 18 in the shop!
Not so happy any more!

2 days ago I put a trailer hitch on the Pumpkin. I used the Curt hitch & the Curt wiring adapter / pigtail for the trailer lights. The wiring kit was really nice, perfect plug & play. It took longer to read the directions (I really did read them) than it took to hook them up. The trailer hitch went on really nice as well & I used the hole above the fuel filler pipes to avoid drilling the hole in the rear of the left frame. Tonight I pick up a small trailer. I'll let you know how it works...

I’m looking at a set of JNC001 Hyper Black 15x8 wheels.
Wrapped in 195/50r15 rubber. Slight stretch. 0.8% circumference difference for the Speedo. Should make it pretty accurate and look pretty sweet.
Get a resin shift knob tonight (wife picked it) and changing my dome light to a white LED.
Those are wide wheels for a Mirage. If you're buying them from a local shop, see if they will mount 1 and let you test fit it on your car (front and rear). You are going to have to roll your rear fenders (and possibly pull them out a little, too) to keep them from rubbing.
