NA to T2
Hello Guys,
Please dont be flame me lol
Ive been hunting the forums for a good while now. And i have a decent knowledge of cars.
I just blew my Transmission a few days ago.
89GXL
I would like for a few opinions.
1. Should i stick to NA? I Know its simpler if i just swap out the transmission.
2. I really want to go Turbo. But what do i have to do to do that? I have to swap out litterally everything? Ive been reading a few posts here and there and its all mixed answers.
My original thought was to swap slowly.
For Example, what i was going to do was just swap the
T2 Transmission
T2 Drive Shaft (MAzdatrix one?)
t2 Rear end?
and than eventually go turbo later but i want to just run the car with the t2 tranny
(Do i need anything else?)
MY QUESTION IS.
Is it possible to swap things out slowly? Are there any bad things to just swapping the transmission first?
Can someone post a link to a 13b NA to a 13b Turbo?

From the FAQ stickied at the top of the 2nd gen tech section:
Can I install the Turbo II transmission into an NA?
Certainly. But you need to also install:
-TII flywheel, clutch, pressure plate
-TII slave cylinder
-TII starter
-TII driveshaft, differential, axels
-Adapt the wiring.
MazdaTrix makes a TII transmission to NA rear end driveshaft, so if you don't want to swap your rear end, you can use that shaft instead.

Thanks for the replies guys!
So i found an NA Transmission in my area. 120k Miles and wants a $100 but im sure i can talk him down a bit.
Few more questions
Is there a distinct way to tell if its an S4 NA Transmission?
Are there some things i can ask or look for to tell if its good?
He said he used Redline Gear Oil and never had any metal shavings come out of it.
