I was hoping to have the Karcepts shifter kit cut out completed by the end of the day. That didn't happen since I ran into a couple obstacles.
Karcept's shift kit hardware:
Make sure the 2 little brackets are correct:
(Note the laptop in the background / it was outside as I worked -- the instructions are about as detailed as you can get
Template mounted and 2 holes marked for drilling:
Pop's gave this to me as a X-mas gift as well as a few other Harbor Freight goodies. Awesome punch:
Drilling the holes:
The rear mount bracket was a little wide as you can see in the pic:
I marked what needed to be trimmed off:
And started trimming with my Harbor Freight polisher/sander (hopefully the neighbors didn't see the camera/tripod when I was taking work in progress pics
Much better fit:
Not sure if I need to trim some off the right side so the left side will sit flush. Karcepts said the gap should pull out fine once the hardware is installed and tightened down. Great service with Karcepts
Waiting on a router bit to slot the holes. Once slotted I will finish the kit with the cut out.
While waiting I have scrubbed most of the engine bay with a toothbrush. I am going to remove the subframe / steering rack for cleaning/paint + better paint job in bay! Then it's time to start prepping for paint
Thanks again guys for the support

Funny thing is right now my buddy has a 2nd gen Neon he is doing the EXACT same work too for a SRT4 twin turbo swap..(he's alittle further ahead but has help..sometimes) and the dry ice and removing windows (intact to make templates for lexan) is a bitch. TIP use to people one inside car one out with each holding onto a piece of welding wire and go back and forth the hole way around the windows to remove in one piece to make templates for the light weight lexan
Thanks so much for the props and all the +1's..... and I have not even got into the good stuff yet (motor) haha..... I should be getting a motor within a few weeks. Waiting on the tax return.
Is that TT SRT4 local as well?? I'd like to see it
On to some work from Nov 2006.....
Here is some pics when I removed the sound deadning material back in November 2006:
Is it ok to remove the brown glue or is that a sealer? Should I just clean it up really well, hit it with some sand paper lightly, and paint over it?? (Pic below)
Pass side removed:
Turned out to be like 9-11 pounds.
