Driving around 70MPH..all of a sudden I feel some weird vibrations..thought it was a tire...Hit the gas--idles! nothing behind it..

drop it down to 4th...fine..shift to 5th gear--all idles..
coasted home around 40MPH...
shifts 1-4 fine..5th dead..

Replaced the clutch 2 years ago (about 30K) with a clutchmaster stage 1..

Now, how much u think this will cost me?

Im bringing it to my mechanic 2nite..not sure if i should risk driving it there..

Celica GT 1995..
miles: 117,000

I was hoping u wouldnt say that. Its at the mechanic's now. Maybe it just needs a part or adjusting (prob not)..But Im not gonna waste my time thinking about it..
117K and trans goes..I doubt Ill ever buy another toyota again. My ford festiva has 170K miles- original tranny..

Any idea cost of a rebuilt tranny? Hell, ill put a junkyard tranny in...
thanks for your advise..
