Don't know if this is going to show up in the right place because I'm typing this on my bad blackberry... But I need a new transmission for my Mazdaspeed Protege. Shifter pin snapped and LSD is probably bad. Rebuild is my last option. Does anyone have a trans for sale? Help a brotha out! Any...

this is fsd_619 was just lazy to log off my friend lol

Snapped mine. looking for a good deal. preferably already welded. not looking to spend top dollar on a quaife... pm me pleeeeeeeease!

yeahh i feel your pain. i was living up north from san diego so i got it towed home and now i have to deal with it. gonna check the fs threads often!

okay cool thanks alot!

so after getting reffed i switched back to my Pann Auto FMIC kit. in order to get the stock IC back on i had to bend a metal mount that held the radiator and the fan to the frame on the right side. well when i put the kit back on the mount wouldnt bend back to the right position so i said ****...

thanks ill give that a try. i put one clamp on the intake recirc so maybe its not tightened down all the way

i got reffed by a CHP yesterday so i had to put ALL my stock parts on. everything looked fine, the BPV was on right but when i hit boost and let off it didnt turkey. it sounded more like a stock SRT4 which i know is not right. following that the car would not idle right and dip down. driving...
