Hey guys, my name is Mark and ive been on this site for a few months now, looking for a 4G63 swapped CSM. I looked at one and talked to a few guys that had some for sale, but I knew right when I saw this one it had to be mine!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Turbo-Co ... dZViewItem

As you can see, I lost the auction and figured fate would not let me have her. So, I moved on, but two days after the auction ended the new owner contacting me, asking if I was still interested! It was a sign, I had to have it, again! So I made the journey that Friday to go pick her up with my best friend, ran in to a few problems but now shes all mine. If you wanna read up about the car, go here:

But I cant take credit for this amazing cars work. It is a board member here, 89Mirageman I believe. His work was fruit and banana awesome and the car gets compliments everytime it comes out of the garage. My plans for the car are a new muffler, 91 TEL shifter with new bushings, 660's with matching chip from Jestr tuning, Adjustable FPR and some 205 or 225 BFG drag radials (still undecided on size, doing research now). So onto the pics I took 10 minutes ago! Comments, positive and negative are welcome.

Yeah 89mirageman did a nice job with that car. A 225/50 BFG works pretty well,

Hey that looks just like my............oh nevermind :P

Mark I am so happy that you ended up with it man. When someone else won the auction I felt so bad for you because after talking to you a few times I knew how bad you wanted it. You must be right with the man upstairs because it seems like it just fell in your lap afterall like it was meant to be.

I do miss that car even though I hardly ever drove it. As most of you already know I probably had a years worth of weekends invested in it and I was very ,very pleased with the end result.

I still have the palm software and the extra key and I promise it will go out tomorrow. I've been so busy with the car lot recently that it completely slipped my mind until I saw this thread.

Well take care of her man and let me know if you need anything.

Mark I just read that you plan on upgrading to the 91 DSM shifter. This will take a little work because the CSM's use different shift levers on the tranny than DSM's do. I swapped the shift levers over to the Laser FWD tranny when I did the swap so that I could use the Colt shifter. You'll have to swap them back and I believe the shift cables are different too. Just a little FYI, maybe someone who has actually done the shifter swap will chime in.
