Hey All -
My car started slipping out of 5th gear back in June (2015).
I took i t to a trusted local shop and they said that basically the full 5th assembly is worn out, but they couldn't order parts.

I have worked with the local dealership and even a contact at Toyota HQ in California. Turns out the very last part I need (5th / reverse shifter fork) doesn't exist. It is on a list to be made in Japan, and then will have to be shipped over on a boat. BEST case scenario I am looking at about two more months to get the part. If there is any sort of problem in shipping or customs it could take an extra month.

So now, I am considering buying a full new (used) transmission. Anyone have a parts car??
I have a UPS account that can take care of shipping, so don't let that scare you!

Tell your friends!

Details:
1999 Celicat GT
180K Miles Daily driver
5-speed

Thanks

Any idea what Trans weights, so I can get a shipping estimate?
