This is sorta funny but since it ended up being a 92 that you got you've now spoken for 1/3 of the legacy Turbo transmissions.
The guy called today and it should be at your Garage on Thursday at the latest. |

Re: speed shifting
Quote:
Are you accusing me of acctually power shifting it? Because thats not what i ment when I said I slamed it into gear, I was just using the word slamed to describe the shifting into gear, I didn't really shift it that way. The synchros where worn the tranny had 170Kmiles on it, and was driven hard when it was in my Legacy so I expected it to break eventually. I would love to do some solo 1, if I had the time/money, but not in the SVX. I don't want to thrash it.

Well I took 4 hours Sunday and swaped in my new 5 speed. So far so good except my damn shifter still rattles, it's driving me crazy. Did notice on the way to swap them that the car cruises at 3,500rpms at 65mph, not bad for 4th gear.

Ok, so I had a chance to pull my old tranny apart tonight. I pulled the rear housing off to find fifth gear in perfect condition. Huh? Lookin at it playin with it tring to figure out why the hell it wasn't working. finally take it apart to remove the gear and find out that it sheared of the part of the gear that the shift coller locks on to. I can't tell if its a pressed on part or if it's suppost to be one peace. Anyway thats all it did so I took the fifth gear of a spare FWD 5 speed (that just happens to be the same size) and put it on my old tranny and put it back together. So now I guess I have a spare, Not really a bad thing I guess.

Ya I haven't been in any accidents with me behind the wheel either, but have been in several accidents while sitting in the passengers seat. Maybe i'm bad luck? Thats why it's always better to let me drive. he he.
