I'm still working on my tib and I'll keep this post updated with my needs.

Currently I need:

-An engine cover/spark plug cover
-A stock steering wheel (Mine's torn up)
-A new fuel door, preferably in black if I can get it

Also, I'm looking to do an auto to manual swap. I'm going to need every single part to do it minus the transmission. I'll need the:
-Shifter and shift cables
-Starter
-Clutch Pedal and linkage
-Clutch Slave Cylinder and lines
-Manual brake pedal assembly
-IIRC, the speedo sensor and sending unit
-Anything else I might have missed.

Shoot me a pm, I'm looking to move fast here.

The oem one is terrible and isnt worth it.

Just a thought...

Thanks Tibbychick.

^^

Yeah, I know the stock shifter is usually crapp, and I know this is going to sound like heresy to you guys, but I'm trying to get as close to absolute stock on this car as I can.

I would recommend getting the kjb Bushings and shifter mounts from here. I know you are looking for stock but save the slop it will feel better.

Yeah, as long as I can keep it looking stock, a little "behind the scenes" improvement wouldn't be bad at all. Do you have a link to pick some of those up?

-An engine cover/spark plug cover - I will have one soon but not until next month. black engine cover, blue spark plug cover.

-A stock steering wheel (Mine's torn up) - it would be easier to find a replacement cover and recover it. there are a few companies that do sell them for our cars, in colors you can select.

-A new fuel door, preferably in black if I can get it - cheaper to buy a new one unless you find someone parting out a black car. they are like 20 bux brand new, dirt cheap.

Alright, first order of business. A major hats off to the members of RDTiburon.com! This has by far been one of the fastest turnarounds I've ever gotten. My inbox has been flooded with people offering to set me up with parts!

Tibbychick's got me hooked up with pretty much all of my manual swap needs, as well as a wheel and a fuel door.
Ericy321 sold me his spark plug cover (sorry I was so vague earlier by saying engine cover)

That's like 90% of my list right there, plus all of the great advice!

My revised list is as follows:

Still need a stock shift boot/surround and a stock knob, Frozen may still have his, but if not any help is welcome.
My lower timing cover's kinda marred up, if anyone has one of those I'd take it off their hands.
I know there's more, but my brain is stalling out, I'll update my needs tomorrow night after I've been working on her.

Thank you guys again!
