how do you know if the transmission is going out?
 

?

Well you cant get it into gear! In my case it was reverse that I couldnt get into. It had high miles with no rebuilds. I had the whole things done. Gears and syncros and bearings, shift forks etc. After all that I could have just bought a new one. I reccomend. buying a new trans. For one you can possible replace all the worn out parts for less. Also the rebuilt trans will never be a new trans. Also there is allot of incompitence when it comes to people rebuilding these FD transmissions. Mine cost 1700+ from Malloy Mazda to rebuild. I also got a short shifter and ACT clutch at the same time. Imagine how much I have in the trans and its not even new. It works fine but a new trans would have been much better and much slicker. Thats my opinion. Also PFS has some new transmissions they will sell for low $2k. To me thats a bargain.

man these cars are expensive ;) thanks for the info...my car was just feeling weird when i was putting it into gears (like you said almost hard to do, but i could do it). i guess this could be the problem. :( but yeah...i am with you on the new stuff part...there is nothing better than new stuff...that way you know it is done right! thanks again.
