transmission
Well I hate to bring up this old issue again, but here goes. I am in need of either a rebuilt or new or a place to get a transmission rebuilt. I have a 94 with a 2WD tranny that is out. I have heard that there is a couple of places that will convert these to a 5 speed for about 4 grand. That doesn't sound to bad since it is going to cost about that to get one from the dealer and have it put in. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am from Indiana and also work at SIA. I really wanted to have my car at the meet this weekend but I will not be able to get it there. I am sure I will see some of you there as I want to meet others like myself.

You are about to hit tranny information overload. The experiences that we've all had could fill a library. There'll be plenty of good info for you. So, come on in for a visit. There will be a five-speed at the meet (Huck is bringing his) and he can tell you how he did it for around a thousand bucks. And his is AWD. Perhaps it'll be less expensive for a FWD. I look forward to meeting you.

Having you on this board more often is giving me a memory rush!! Sometimes it seems like forever ago when we were conversing on Yahoo. I've missed having you around. Looking forward to finally meeting you. Now, don't giggle too much. <NANANANA-BOOBOO!!>

You'd have to get your SVX Torque Converter rebuilt, as the Legacy's won't work with the SVX flywheel. But I believe you'd like the lower gears of the Legacy tranny.
