Default Six Speed Grand Prix Video

Here it is. I hope you enjoy. My axle snapped five minutes after this video, so I wasn't able to get any others.

What! Are you kidding me? That is a SIX speed MANUAL transmission in a Grand Prix. The fact he is able to shift any gears is awesome.

I surely hope you are kidding. Please take a look at the swap thread, and then maybe you will appreciate it a little more.

Really neat that you were able to get that to work. Definitely one hell of a custom job.



But, whats the point behind it?

Many people have asked this question. A few girls have said, "if you are trying to impress me, you havn't." I just tell them, "that isn't my point, I did it because I can", and that is always what my answer is. It is very satisfying to actually complete a project like this.

^^^I think he is more coming from the same perspective that I am. Yes, it was awesome to build and drive. There is something super cool about a six-speed Grand Prix that I just can't explain.
I would have been dollar ahead in the long run selling my car, and picking up a 2004 GTO. That makes good sense.
Don't misunderstand me, I have no regrets, and looking back I would do it again.
