Its too bad you dont have the loot to do a rebuild on the trans while its out. I had mine done @ Pineapple, after about 98,000k all the innards are really wore out. New seals should keep the grease at a minimum for a while.

A grand for what? its already out of the car.

Mine was like 650 out the door, Rob tanked the case, new synchros, all of it

1000 bucks is a ton of loot for a simple rebuild.

heh, those exhuast bolts weren't that hard, set a socket on them, climb out from under the car, and about ten good kicks, and viola, problem solved, I only sheared off one bolt, and stripped another, but they were the ones I was replacing anyway, (btw, good god those cats are heavy, glad they are gone)

My tranny from pineaplle was 950. But I had the miata gearset installed.



I can get the rebuild kit for an NA for 300
