must be those cheater slicks. too grippy to handle. lol jk...my friend drove my car and broke my 2nd gear which grenaded and destroyed all the other gears as well in may 2007.

all i could do at the time was pop another used 5speed into the car...so far it's been...ok.
if i had the funds, i'd definitely go with a built ppg setup. all straight cut gears. i <3 the sound

I am an ASE master tech. manual transmission are not that hard to rebuild. you could dot it your self to save you about 1 grand.

just saw the video. your friend was beating on the car. i would not let him drive it again!!! sounds like either a bearing went out or he broke a gear.

So I need some suggestions on where I should go in the san jose area to get my tranny fixed.

Thanks

Good thing this did not happen in lake tahoe a month ago!

^^Yeah good thing! I was planning on going up there next weekend too. So yeah I'm glad it happened where it did.

So I'm not 100% sure it is the tranny though. Someone said it may just be the clutch, and being I've never had either go out on me on a car before I'm not sure.
