Transmission Problems, Only drove it for 3 days Options

[Supersprynt]

After 3 days of driving the car, my 5sfe tranny blew a hole in itself monday night.

This means i need to:
a.) rebuild my existing tranny ($1500)
b.) Get a 3SGE tranny and put that in ($$)
c.) Jump off a cliff

Well im leaning towards B. The 3sge will bolt up to the 3sgte engine, and it holds more power. I was going to do the tranny swap next summer, but its gotta come sooner now.

Everyone doing the 3sgte swap, start sourcing ur new tranny even if you do have the GT, cuz i never went above 80mph in the car with the 3s and it blew when i was doing 65.

I posted this in the buy/sell forum but will post it here to make sure you see it

Call this number 1.888.221.1440 I got my 3sge trany for 348$ shipped to my door. Its a 93 Jdm 3sge with apprx 30k on it.
You will need to use the bell housing off of the 5sfe tranny though cuz the starter is angled the wrong way on the 3sge to work with the 3sgte. but from the sounds of it you already have that.

hope that helps
