Quick stop, beer, playing a set in the lovely town of Kent, OH, then off to grab a couple beers with this girl that has a lip ring and it kills me. Bye everyone!

That would be great. Maybe next time. Tonight I was just after fast and edible and I would say it was actually pretty good.

Morgan, you are braver than I am. How did you lift the car to do the tranny swap?

jack and jackstands?? haha it was quite the maneuver trying to get the scion transmission in the car... then the disappointment of things not working... then removal of scion trans and reinstallation of yaris trans... my arms (and my bf's arms) are tired
oh and the steering angle was off when we realigned the subframe sunday afternoon... so a few hours of this evening were spent dropping the subframe again to realign the steering

And why did you choose to do this instead of all the short shifter kits available? I must have missed it. 6 gears?

I'm not a fan of shorter/harder shifting. In my opinion the shifter travel is acceptable and since I autox regularly (wahoo sunday!) I wanted to use more of the low-end power of the Yaris.
The scion xa/xb1 have the same engine and very similar transmissions but they are geared lower to feel sportier and the yaris is geared taller for better mileage. Coming out of a hairpin corner at ~20-30 mph, its really too fast for 1st gear but its horribly low for 2nd and it takes what feels like days for it to reach back up to speed again. The goal was to not be the fastest thing at autox, but to give the miatas a little more run for their money guess the next step will have to be some r-comps, darn!

I've decided that right now, I don't want the hassle of changing wheels at the track just for the sake of R comps...yet. I'll get stickier tires this summer. Tomorrow, I'm upgrading my brakes with new rotors, pads, and SS lines. My brakes were no good last Sunday so I had to limit my speed in the staightaways.
