My newest upgrade, I know, nothing new to some of you. I decided to add S60R calipers to the rear with stock rotors.
I bought the rotors/calipers for $150.00 of a wrecked 2005 S60R with 5000 miles in a junkyard back east
I brought the calipers to work and used our glass bead blaster to remove the stock finish.
I will have the calipers powder coated in a glossy black finish and once 034 is done with the brackets, I'll post up pics of the final product.
I also cleaned up the rotors/hat and will paint the hat in a glossy black finish with high temp engine enamel paint(1200*F). Once they dry, I'll post pics of that too.
This is what they looked like;

And a few pics of the M56H of a 1998 S70 T5.
A little hystory on the flywheel and why it's taking me so long to do my manual swap.
On December, I dropped off my stock 96 flywheel to 034 and I'm still waiting on it.
034 sent the flywheel out to X company, not too mention names or point fingers. They had it for 3 months, took all the measurements and nada, then we got it back, sent it to the next company and they did nothing, backed out after having the flywheel for 2 months, again, we get it back and now we shipped it to the last company and so far they are responding positively. I hate waiting..
Pics of the tranny below, as I order the LSD/clutch/flywheel, I'll post up. Plus I will include detailed pics of the full swap and will be posted on this thread to help others.
The tranny will get a fresh scrub/paint.

Well, got the S40 Quaife LSD from 034.
Decided to tear the tranny apart, here are some pics.
Ordered new tapered roller bearings for the LSD and I will press them at work today.
Manuf- SKF or Timken
Part# 32008X or 32008XM
Cost $34ea from Applied Industrial Technologies in San Jose, CA. Took one day to order them.
You can order these from any bearing shop.
This weekend I'll put the tranny back together, the clutch should be here by Friday.
I got an amazing deal on a SPEC stage 3+ part #SO133F.
Will post as I make progress.

Wiseco doesn't carry our pistons on the shelf, they are made to order. 4 weeks time frame, they include rings/pins to what ever CR you want, size of piston, and coatings.
As per $$, I don't want to think about it but lets put it this way, I could have an M5 in my drive way
Last night, I gave the tranny a fresh coat of paint, I need to replace the axle seals and spline seal.
Any of you guys done this before, do I need a special tool to remove them?
I searched but couldn't find a write up on it???
Fresh coat
Also the flywheel option is dead, I tried with no success (8 months), freaking ring gear

Axle seals just pop out with a flat head screwdriver, just be very gentle so that you don't damage the housing.
Spline seal was fine on mine. RMS was another gentle approach, but also comes off well.
