its just 4th gear that's out. I'm finding out who tuned it. The car he is wanting to trade for has been sitting in my driveway with a for sale sign on it for 10 months. Does anyone remember this build from the past at all? If the 4th gear is stripped and its not just the synchro would it be worth going with a longer 4th gear? If everything is fine and the tranny is the only issue, and its just 4th gear, what are your thoughts on the trade at that point and downgrading and retuning with a twinscroll gt30?

 

i saw this car on the SRT forums too....seems like a can of worms.

this is the original for sale post (from what i can find). I have contacted the original seller in hopes to get some more information on the vehicle

 

+1.

 

I would buy it, but then again I am not affraid of down time nor a problem car

 

why is 4th gear out?

personally I'd never buy a car that wasn't working (ie tranny)

unless I either knew the person or it was a project car and I had the funding/time to not care if it ran anytime soon

 

Built 2.3L w/twin scroll 40R. Am I the only one thinking 500awhp is horribly low for the car?

 

i have a 03 Evo 8 and the service engine light keeps getin thrown .. i get random miss fire codes when i check it ...i have changed the spark plugs out there brand new and it still throws that code .... i need to know how to make this stop for good... please... thanks..

 

probably not best to hijack a thread for your first post.

 

that was sort of my thoughts.. you can make 500+ on a ts gt30 pretty easily ..

 

The turbo set up on that evo alone is about $5000-$6000 depending on the brand. Even with 4th gear being out, the price is lower than what I paid for mine with just intake and exhaust. I personally don't trust it...
