Well the full swap does. Totally different power band. But yes the VLSD in the center does make a large difference. I drove this car briefly before the previous owner swapped transmissions. It's so much easier to control and induce oversteer now.

I hate not have a spare transmission. This is the first car since my first GTX that I didn't have a spare. I'm buying plastic paint today, and hopefully painting my foglight grill to prep it for install.

The GTae bumper is still hard to find... No reproductions that i know of... I know that parts of it are NLA but if you can find a place to get it from (which I'm working on) the bumper without the screens is available. This bumper is... at least 5 years old though.

It's actually for a pre-facelift 323. So maybe I could.. but the hardest part for me is replacing the lamps as they're rusted and cracked lenses...
