Made some progress on mine today. FINALLY got the trans cleaned up respectably.
Went to mount flywheel/clutch to b6, noticed the crank snout was different. Got all discouraged and put all my tools n junk away and preparing to source a b6 flywheel. Then my dad came out and I showed him what was wrong, and the little ring popped right out of the snout. Problem solved! Progress continues! Must've been a auto trans thing or something. Either way, glad I don't have to buy more stuff.
Good luck with that, I picked mine up yesterday. $200 for a new transmission, $330 for a new clutch and the installation. Anyone need a good transmission with an axle stub stuck in it. I really don't believe they tried very hard to get the axle out.
today i finished the engine gasket job, water pump, 180 thermostat, oil change, and am cutting the cat off, and also removed back seat and any additional junk i dont need in it...thurning back seat into a couch for the patio
Relocated the coil to the fender core support, swapped in a good window winder mech from a parts car, and contemplated tinting the windows. Also sprayed it off good and doused it with car wash "wax".
The tow truck came and picked up my Festiva to take it to Aatco. Having the clutch, pressure plate, drive axels looked at & or replaced.

Just picked me up a nice pair of 92' Prelude seats, no tears or obvious stains, just need to give them a bit of a clean because lots of dirt that got into the car got on the seats.
Just working on fabbing the tabs for the rear mounts and they should be in.
Already test fitted the drivers side, sat down, and could tell they were definitely more comfy, and held you better than those rocks you call Festiva seats.
