Hey guys I am starting a thread on my 6GA EX v6 which began as an automatic j30a1 Coil on plug motor. I'll be writing the whole story start to where I am now and continue to update as progress is made. I will be providing details for all the little tricks and one off mods I do along the way.

First things first
I bought the car at the age of 16 with 120k in the summer of 2013, Bone stock, and drove it until I was 18 and I began to lightly modify it, not necessarily as a ricer but I went about buying cheaper parts (no name exhaust and CAI) and absolutely loved the car though it would grow to be the most hated car in my hometown. So I parked it for a while and and got into a few Evos but always ended up losing my **** due to their unreliability. So about 1 year ago I had a small nitrous kit put on yh car (50shot) directly ported into the intake. Ran the car very hard, and as you all know the auto tragic transmission will only take so much. Needless to say the differential blew apart this past may while racing a mustang GT on the highway. Which brought me to the decision of either to replace the tranny or go all out, balls to the wall and build a J32/35 with an LSD transmission, which is the route I took. I completed the build and swap and ran it on AEM V2 for a couple months before I decided to tear the car apart and repaint it and completely tuck and shave the bay as well as build a motor for a big turbo. As soon as I am able to upload photos I will do so but for now check out my profile albums I'll keep them updated

Now post swap I began to really hate the beat up, worn out look of the car so I decided not even two months after the swap was finally running right that it was time to go all in, change the color and every other aspect of the car to make it truly one of a kind or at least contain a treasure trove of one off mods. Here's a few pictures of the car being torn apart yet again

It only took me nearly 4 years to do anything to the car. A blown transmission brought all of this into fruition. Car is months out from being finished but some HUGE surprises to come

Were you satisfied at all with the j35/j32 AEM v2 6 speed swap? I'm in the process of this now. Hoping close to 300whp
