So I'm thinking more and more that I might just track down a 282 and go that route. A little more work, but since I'll have to put another tranny in anyways, I figure why not? Now to find one. I think I know who has one, though, up by my parents, too

You bought Jay's, didn't you? I even PMed him last night to see if he still had it, knowing that he didn't but hoping it was backed out on. I remember you talking about it now. heck, sell it to me for cheap? You still have to finish your swap on the 91  :laugh:

Nice! I'm going to guess that's a cell phone video?

By the way, off topic, and please don't take offense to this. Your voice sounds like the voice of the guy on that cell phone message/forward who screams about having ay porn on his cell phone LOL. No trying to offend.

You're lucky...CHRIST I've gotten the vid from 4 different people. Can your cell receive videos? If it can, pm me your number and I'll send you it...it's great and sad lol!

Running TGP's FTW!  If you ever want help on it I'll be glad to help... as long as it's out of my driveway.   ;)  You gonna try to swap that tranny in?  I can get that tranny rebuilt VERY cheaply, it WILL go out, but if you wanted to put in a known good tranny you could go that route.  I'd be rebuilt with a non-turbo 4-T60 rebuild kit, so it won't hold the torque forever, but it'd last until you could get the other one built.  I'm betting we could get it rebuilt for $300-$400 parts and labor.  Let me know if you want me to call my buddy.  If we can find the right parts (IOW, upgraded clutches etc.) I can get the tranny built for ~$200 or so labor.  I'll have to get a quote if you want, but it'd be an idea.  If you want the 5 speed parts, I'll sell you all mine for cheap, even cheaper if you help me pull it all out.  Just remember, the tranny has a large hole in it, so it's no good.  But everything else is good to go.
