yes ive heard this as well

they are trying to use water based now and less toxic paints.

is the laquer a one stage paint?

from my understanding it would be a 1 stage paint.

I've read that you can beat the tunnel out with a hammer to make the Getrags fit...

Yeah, I also read somewhere that only the last couple of model year SC300/400/Soarers had a transmission tunnel capable of fitting the Getrag transmission with no modification. Supposedly most model years require you to physically "modify" the transmission tunnel for fitment.

ReganSC300

oh im good at physical im goin to ahve this sorted out tomorow no worries guys, nothing i cant handle, if i puta 1ggte in an ae86 i can get the getrag to fit
