Default M6 To A4.. Anyone Interested In Trading Me?

I'm having thoughts about taking my T56 out of my 2000 Firehawk. My car was originaly an auto but the previous owner made the M6 swap. I kinda wanna go with a stalled auto here pretty soon. I have a new LS7 clutch kit from SDPC with less then 2k on it, along with a new slave cylinder with a slave shim from Speed Inc. I know if I go through with something like that I'm gonna regret it in the future, but it's cool. I kinda like having an M6.. Girl's never ask to drive, haha. But then again I want a stalled auto (gotta love those track times). If anyone in the San Antonio/Austin/Houston area with a stalled auto are wanting to swap straight up for my M6 let me know something. I still need to talk this over with my Dad so it's nothing for sure at the moment. Just wanna see if anyone out there wants to trade if everything goes good. Let me know something..

Haha.. I know what you mean man. I still haven't decided what I wanna do. I still have to talk to my Dad and see what he thinks about the idea.

I have a customer moving here from Florida next month. This is the deal he is looking for.

I have told him that if he could arrange to bring me both cars I would cut both guys a pretty darned good deal to handle the swap on both cars.

Let me know if this interests you. If you would like details call me at the shop!

agreed. i thought this was common knowledge. m6's do better from a roll but from a dig, a4 all the way. stalled a4's slaughter m6's

LMAO. I had a feeling you'd reply to my post, but you know me. I dont race, so even if an stalled a4 would beat my m6(given they both had the same mods etc). Its not really a concern to me. I just like driving standards more.

I don't really race much either but I wanna be able to take my car down to the tracks and throw down some good times. See my sig. for my mods. Just kidding. Hahaha.. So far I have Mac mid tubes, Mac off road y-pipe, Flowmaster cat-back with a cut-out, SLP lid, SLP TCS reversal module, LS7 clutch kit, Auburn rear differential, and a nice little tune, and a couple of other goodies that I'm forgetting. I just wanna have a stalled auto to help me out ET wise..

Call me tomorrow, or when you determine that this is what you are going to do.

I would like to talk to you in order to determine the swap is the right thing for you to do before we talk about the deal itself.

I'll be at the shop all day, I have a car coming in that needs to have it's Tune tweaked so i'll be out for a bit. But do call.

If you really want to do the swap, hold out and find someone to swap even with you "NO CASH". A M6 is way more valuable than a A4. Meaning more people want a M6 vs A4. If you have time wait, and the right deal will come around. I know a guy that sells broke T56 gear cases for $900.00 all day. Try selling a broke A4, you practually have to give them away.

Yeah I know. Everyone who is interested in making the swap with me wants like a couple of hundred $ and on top of that I have to do like a 4-6 hour drive. Psshhh.. I'd rather just keep my M6. I want an A4, but if I'm gonna have to add $ and what not I'll just stick with my M6. Get's better gas mileage anyways. I'm in no rush..

I'm in Kenedy. It's like 60 miles south of San Antonio. League City.. Sounds like it's around the Houston area? Don't know how much shops usually charge for something like this. I'm guessing anywhere from $400-$650. Is a 4000 stall good to be used for daily driving? I don't wanna get too big of a stall now..
