My 2nd and 3rd gear syncros were shot. Only problem was, my car is an early 90. So, they had to upgrade the 1st and 2nd gear shaft. Wich was an extra $280. I haven't really beat the piss outta of it yet. Keith said to wait at least 100 miles and change to some BG Syncro Shift, then go to town.
It was a night and day difference, I can actually shift as fast as I want to, going into 2nd or 3rd now. That was unheard of before in my car. You will not be dissapointed.
I have a '90 FWD.....the tranny needs to be rebuilt/replaced.....
should i goto BMTranny or T.R.E.? and why should i goto one over the other? what can i do to "beef" up the tranny? besides BG fluid and jap. spec forks and the LSD? (Qualiffe=very $$)

BMTranny has a lot faster turn around time than TRE.
B&M is going to redo a tranny of mine also. B&M rebuilds alot of TRE trannies that weren't done right. Send a tranny to B&M & you'll have it back in a week or so.. send it to TRE & you'll get it back in a month or 6.

I got my trans done there. You cant beat the price and the turnaround time. They did Jeff Hill's trans and he's made like 40 NOS sub 10.5 second passes on it....good stuff!
Yeah, my 92 awd is starting to crunch in 2nd and sometimes 1st. My heart just sinks when i hear that . well how much does it cost to drop the tranny, ship a tranny from iowa to B&M (where are they?), and get my crunching to go way? OH, and it only takes about a week?? dang.
