I just traded my c50 turbo today for a 92 Laser RS, turbo awd 5spd, with the intention to concentrate on one colt, my 89 c10 sedan. So i now have what i think is everything i need for the swap. A donor car. It wont be this year though. Still no time, and hopefully, by July, baby will be here. So maybe summer 2010 the swap will happen. Just thought i would share. |

Not worth the time for awd, i already have a subaru. I like the one wheel terror. Nothing beats the look on ppl's faces as you pass them while burning tires in 2nd or 3rd gear! The swap should be simple enough. I know kids are money pits, but one needs a habit or a hobby. So I am choosing to keep the colt as a hobby. It shouldnt be too bad. I just have to get more efficient. Home reno's under control now, baby will definetely keep me us on our toes, but i figure in a couple of years it should be done. I am pretty good at making things happen. Once i set myself a due date, i basically cant sleep, and just git er dun. Since i wont be able to sleep anyway, may as well make use of it. Got to be optimistic. 2030, no faith, thanks guys |

I am hoping to use the stock colt trany, the km206. I think i would have to use the 1.6 61t Flywheel, or 1.8dohc elantra, which are not stepped. I have to research about an alternative in case using the km206 will not work with the above mentioned Fw's. The Laser i have is 5spd awd. Maybe i can use that tranny, i havent seen what it looks like physically. I am trying to keep costs and parts searching to a minimum. I would also like to try to use the 206 because of not having to change cv shafts. Any ideas? |

if you are planning to use an KM206 tranny you will have to use an 2.0 eclipse non turbo flywheel,, you still can use the mirage 1.6 turbo starter,, this tranny ( km206) is good for acceleration but not for top end,,,,@ at 65mph = 3500 rpm,, |

Oscar, i know the 206 has taller gears and 5th will wind out quickly, but i am okay with that. I have had the c-10 up to 110M/h, and it doesnt fee safe at all. I cant imagine it doing 125M/h plus. I dont want to get into swapping cv shafts and transmissions yet. First i woud like to get it mounted, and running. What did you have to do with the shifter cables to fit the dsm tranny, as well as he clutch slave/master. Fuel line? Any modification? Where did you mount the oil cooler? What Radiator you using? Intercooler? Power steering line, does it reach, any modification required? Do you have any close/ clear pics of the engine bay? Which engine mount cross member did you? I assume it to be the colt. Another reason i would like to keep the 206 is because i have three trannies, and i would like to try the bm lsd insert, if it fits. That way, i wont feel bad about wrecking a tranny. Plus, i can re/re a tranny in less than 2hrs, tops. I know i have done it plenty of times. I am getting more excited with this swap. Even though there is tons to do around here. Build a 14x14 shed, do all trim in the house, baseboard and casing, and do up babies room. The sooner i get this swap done, the sooner i get rid of 100's of g32b parts. I will then have two complete g32b motors than run. That alone will clear my upper section of my garage, and half of my shed. cheers. Cha |
