Thanks for the props man! I haven't driven her in months now, but one day, I'll get her fixed. (The tranny went out again

Well guys, the new year is just some days away, and I will be making plans to obtain all the parts I need to do the manual swap. This has been long overdue, so you can imagine how happy I am to get this underway and if any of you guys have any of the parts needed to to the manual swap, then, please, let me know.
Thanks,...

Hi guys. It's been awhile since I've posted on my worklog, however, I still have a auto tranny in. Yes I know they are not perfect trannies, but I've had this one for over a year now, and the difference is how I drive now. On the other autobox I had, I was going 90 mph and above with it on the highways... just dogging it to death. With this tranny, I still have a aftermarket tranny cooler installed, but now, I just take my time getting to where I need to go... never really going above 70 mph on the highways. And when I do go above 70 on the highway, I go no further that 80 mph, and that's just to pass someone going slower than I am.
So, it might not be a fast RS, but I do keep her in excellent running condition. I not long ago, had a Pioneer Navigation unit installed in her, and the timing belt, water pump, thermostat, both belts and upper and lower radiator hoses replaced. And I'm getting the AC unit serviced for the summertime season coming up... as well as replacing both axels next month.
Also, here are various pics I've taken. Hope you all like them... and let me know if you do!
Take care untill next time guys.

LOL! That's a good one mooneggs. The car was parked on a hill, with a dip in it were that rear wheel was sitting at when I took that... yeah, the pic came out really funny!

Yeah, I hear you on that xxwhiteboyjim22xx. But, I'm taking my MX to the shop and letting my mechanic do it. I did my passenger side axle about 4 years ago, and after that prolonged ordeal, that was more than a notion that me replacing axels just isn't my cup of tea! (

Yeah, the price to get them done shouldn't be to bad on them. My right side axle is starting to click, so I'll be taking the Mx to the mechanic sooner than later.

Sweet tell me how much it costs you just incase my other side dies on me too. Nice lookin mx-3 by the way. I got a red one to but the body dosent look nearly as good...looks like somone hit 50 golf balls into all sides of my car.
