    LOL Shift into third today and hear nothing but loud metal marbles. Wasnt even getting on it. Bye Bye #3.. Surprised the tranny lasted this long. 02 5 speed Stock.

    Now what choices to go with for a new tranny,... when I get the money.. I have a few ideas but nothing solid yet.

    Seriously though, a dog engagement gearbox on a daily driven car isn't the best idea. They require maintenance and unless you have a lot of dough or are familiar with setting up transmissions a synchronized gearbox is a much better idea on a daily driven car.

    Yeah thats kinda where i was at to. I dont daily drive the car, more of a weekend car but sometimes it does see a few days during the week. I would like to hit the track a lot more again (its been a while) so I want something kinda beefy. I have a lot of time to decide so it will be a long thinking process.
