Automatic tectonic tranny? That's really interesting! I had that exact same car too, an '89 two tone coupe with the same two colors. I miss it so damn much... hope you're preserving the two tone!

What other plans do you have your car?

nice job,I have a VQ also...so sweet and powerful engines
you should return that regular VQ35 oil pump and put a rev up oil(05-06) pump while you're at it
and those headers are not for a VQ :s101:
