Looks real clean on the outside. Gonna make the necessary repairs and drive it ? Looks like you'll be a TWO Vibe family like so many of us here

sorry, i thought i answered this earlier...
the DG needs a new transmission and luckily i have a friend with a supercharged 1zz wtih a c60 who blew his engine....so im pulling the engine/tranny and using the c60, exedy clutch and fidanza flywheel.
trying to make the black vibe an uber economical city driver
thus, i picked up some forged goodness today

Please detail the auto-manual trans swap process. I will be doing the same some day. I'm assuming the supercharger is going to your red Vibe...? Did you sell the Aveo? What happened with the Yaris?
OT, but a guy I autocrossed with actually spoke to you about autoX on another forum. I've randomly found you on several other forums, weirdly.

Black vibe is a 1zz 5speed. Burgandy is a GT 6 speed.
Donor c60 (6speed) is coming from a friend with a TRD s/c'd 1zz matrix who already had a catastrophic 5speed failure.
I'm not doing an auto-manual swap...that's too much work.
Popped off the roof rack from the doppleganger today for repainting

C59, removed. Found the source of its destruction: leaky axle seal...
