Tranny update: anything and everything that has to do with 5th gear is torn all the Sh!t. Total damage: 1800 bucks. Really sucks too cuz i cant just go buy a new one and install it cuz i have no other car and im in between jobs right now trying to find better employment and i need to get to enterviews, and i dont have the time to replace it myself or with Deaths and Pandas help. I need it back now. Sucks!

But oh well. Glad it happened now then later cuz its never a good idea to be late to a new job. i can be late to the job i have now and they dont say anything. And now my Tranny will be in great shap, so there is a plus to all this.

Sh*t - is it such that you can still drive but have no 5th or is it like the whole tranny is dead? Reason being is cause I'm getting an E153, Rear Mount, Axle Carrier and Axles from an SS-III clip here in town really cheap but it's not like I can rush the guy. As far as I know the clip is still not stripped down and when you're swapping that's not something you wanna do fast - best to take your time and label/photgraph everything you can. I know the guy doing the swap and if I know him at all it'll be at least a month before my parts are ready to go.
If you don't need it cause you're in a bind I still know one person who needs my old tranny anyway so no big deal any way you look at it.

What I wanna know is how cars like mine and especially Itchy's can drive around swapped on S54 and beating the hell out of it for years and yours takes a dump on a basically stock 5S?

the REAL SA car meet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TT, GT, POOPRA

Fixed.
No offense to the Poopra but untill they shed the travesty that is the 7M they remain Poopra's. I wonder if that's anyone Alex knows? I swear that boy knows every Poopra [And no longer Poopra] in Texas. 1JZ's everywhere.

BLAHHHH well nobody called and then i heard you old timers flocked back home early lol...........

Just so you know - It was the much younger people in my car that I left for. Despite the fact I'd been up since 6am, sunburnt, hot and clutch leg mutiny I was ready to stick around and/or head for SA

I cant drive around without 5th. I drive way to much just from work and back, it was bad enough driving it home. But id do more damage then just going ahead and fixing it. Its going to suck every bit of cash i have out of me but it will be finished 2mrw. And i can tell you exactly why it crapped out even tho its just a 5s.

1, people that drove it before me suck and dont know how to drive a standard
2, it has 222,000 miles on it. Give it some credit. I checked out all the reports that i had when i bought the car and i carfaxed it before i bought. Its never had any tranny work done to it.

No - not saying anything against it at all. 222,000 is a respectable amount of time for any tranny to last and I'm sure the uphills on the way to Austin took a few more Houston miles out of her. Your gonna be lovin a new tranny anyway. Better get yourself to my house and pick up that other poly mount while you can for the rear since it will be out anyway - no excuse not to upgrade it [especially when I'm not asking anything for it]
