Guys,
I really, really, really, need yer help.....PLEASE. I am seriously desperate and need to get this taken care of, like yesterday.

Basically, I lost my 5 speed manual tranmission in my 93 base.

I need to find either an OEM replacement (the dealer is killing me) or a really good recommendation on a heavy duty "rebuilt" (don't want to deal with it again).

The lower the price the better, but if I got to pay for the quality, then so be it.

Can anyone please shoot me some recommendations?
I am located in the middle of the country.
Please help......

Thanks in advance.....

Kewhip

Please PM me if you could also.
Sorry to be dumping this in here, but I am in desperate hours right now and need to get this bad boy rolling or I am out a whole lotta cash.

Thanks again.

Remember to give BI State a call tommorow about that tremec or tko.

And the brand new transmission is worth every penny. Call Malloy Mazda at 1-888- 533-3400 and ask for Ray Crowe.

Kewhip

Thanks TCB....still waiting for half of these shops to call me back with quotes and inventory *sigh*

I will give Mr. Crowe a call as well to see what he has got to say.

Thanks again.

Resource

Cheers!

tell rob at pineapple racing to rebuild yours

Resource

No problem, the TKO he was quoting you was a TKO. Very nice tranni. He can also do the T56 six speed transmission for you, it will be about 500 cheaper than the price Ron quoted you.

Seeya!

Kewhip

No kiddin? (Holy fricken crap....)
I need to call him back then.


Resource, I need to get yer opinion on something if you wouldn't mind. PM.

Kewhip

Cheers, Can't rebuild....my gears are all ate up from the debris of the gear going out. I need a whole new core.

Recommendations?

I had PFS install an OEM two months ago and its night and day. It feels like a different car, really smooth shifting. It has a MUCH stronger spring between 3rd & 5th and if I ever miss 3rd again I should turn in the car. Unless you plan on running 600HP I don't think the OEM tranny is a weak link.

Again, talk to Ray Crowe and see what he will ship you one for.

Kewhip

Got it....Calling him now TCB.
Thanks bud.

Kewhip

Doh! Ray said, no OEM trannies in til mid next month....
*hrm*

Dilemma...............

Kewhip

Found a remanuf. tranny!

Thanks for all the help guys!

(Wish I could get the OEM though)
