no, no, no... its a gsl with a "sport package"

it says GXL cuz I hit a wall and pulled fenders off of a GXL, they're maroon and the car is red.



the origional fenders said GSL (not SE) and it does have 5 lug wheels etc.



anyhoo we're focusing on the wrong part of the story here. what about the rules? if I (can) go to that 91 coupes transimission, would I have to upgrade the entire car to meet the 91 coupe's specs (options) to still be legal in auto-x's street prepared catagory, or IT's CS catagory? or will I have to find an exact model to pull a tranny off of? someone here has to have knowledge in this area...

where at man? anywhere near texas? (wishful thinking)

Fort Smith AR. I have put 15k of abuse on the thing and not a problem. There should be someone worth a **** near you, ask some local ppl who is the best

I'll do some pokin, I'm sure I'll find someone round here worth while.



thanks a bunch though guys, appreciate it.

forgot to tell yall, now she's intermittantly kickin herself out of 4th gear. well, almost all the way out, it'll kick and slightly grind. oh, and started grinding when down shifting into 4th and sometimes on the upshift too... sonuvabitch.

Small piece of info. The M5 trans 86 & 87 had a 5th gear ratio of 0.711. In 88, the 5th gear ratio became 0.697, except for the convertible, which was still 0.711.

yeah, I figured it would be a little different. no track then.

lowest one I found so far is $1129.99 for a rebuilt, plus 450.00 core.



I was thinking how cool it would be to buy a rebuilt and keep my core. I'd be able to do the rebuild in my spare time, but better take ya'lls advice this time.

**** I hope that comes with a reach around or a kiss, something. When I said under 1k I meant like 755-800. That is rape. I have a spare tranny that nds rebuilt if you want to buy it.

just buy a used one



who cares. its just a tranny. unless you need to know that everything is 100% new.



maybe im bias cause i had two extras in my garage.

well, one now. drove it around a week with no fluid in one, oops. it was fine until the end of the week, and then it made a hell of a noise. wont be doing that again.

ive got a bunch laying around too, they all need 3rd gear i think...
