[svxistentialist]

Hello Martin, you are very welcome to the Network.

I'm sorry for the lack of reply. This most likely reflects that not many people have good transmissions sitting around. In fact it is very common that a bad transmission is the primary reason for "retiring" or breaking SVXs.

If you could get a transmission, the likely cost in the UK would be £500 or less plus shipping, but you run the risk that it might have a fault that you would only know about when you start to use it.

Is there any chance that you could have the damaged transmission rebuilt? If there is a transmission specialist anywhere near you, they should be able to do it. The same 4EAT box is in Legacys and in Foresters, plus it is also used in some Mazdas and Nissans. So they would have no trouble getting the parts for it. It just boils down to whether they would rebuild it for you at a reasonable cost [which depends a bit on how badly burnt out your box is.]

I'll ask around.

Joe
