I may be able to help if you out if you need a 12a transmission. Depends on if the guy thats buying my car wants it.

i think the 85's have the 13b

brokeRX7

nah it's a 12A carb.

brokeRX7

the bearings have been going out for a while but i didn't expect it to die so soon. i called a tow truck to pick it up at around 11 AM today and here it is after 6 and no car.

brokeRX7

got the car back. haven't pulled the tranny yet but will soon. not looking forward to the damage.

hmm... I know there are prople around town with 12a cars sitting aroudn with motor issues...

I'm sure someone has a tranny..

hell, I'd bet you can get one from a yard too...

brokeRX7

yeah i kinda want one in decent shape or i could just rebuild mine. don't know which would cost more though. i can rebuild it myself.

Don't only the GSL-SE's have the 13B.

Sorry to hear the news about your trans man that sucks! But... I have a GSL-SE transmission for sale, its for the 13b so I'm not sure if it will bolt right up or what. Let me know if you are interested.

usually you can get under 30k miles on jspec trannys for like 300 bucks

the the se tranny will bolt up

Is the SE transmission better (stronger) than a reg 12a trans, or just geared differently?

Pedestrian X

same deal as the 12a even in 2nd gen.. xcept for the TII tranny.. thats would be your next step up..

damn I had 3 12a trannys in the last year I had to practically give them away, actually I did give 2 of them away LOL

brokeRX7

well shoot. lol i talked to evan over in college station and he's got a tranny but there's someone in line for it before me. he said that if that guy didn't call today then he would run the tranny up here to me in dallas. i've got my fingers crossed.

I am glad that you got a tranny. The change out job is not too difficult. I had to do the same thing when I bought my SE. It was leaking oil and the previous owner assumed it was engine oil. Anyway, he took it for a 16 hour trip. On the way back, it started making noises, but he kept on going. I tore down the old transmission after I got a replacement tranny. The gears got some blueing from the heat produce having no oil in the transmission and all of the teeth were sheared off of the third gear.

I picked up the used tranmission for $100.

Good luck.
