Feels like 1st and 2nd gear syncros are toast. Can't get the car in first or second...

Default I figured as much. But, does it eliminate the crappiness of the tranny itself?

IIRC, the Stasis unit does just that.

Default LOL "does just that ?!?1111" STFA ..it doesn't do **** !

nothing special unless you opt for the lower gears .. other than that and the 4:1 center is a basic rebuilt with new stock parts.
do not expect a diff feel trans ..it will be the same working better than before (not like brand new either since a lot of the parts have some wear so clearances are not that tight).

Default No...and this has been the best transmission so far. Smooth as glass too.

It's a shame. I think I simply shifted it too hard and fast.

I really don't drive the car that hard. I think I might have caused this one.

Damn! Well that just sucks! What options do we have for a bullet-proof tranny?

stasis or a rebuild that uses the same parts as stasis. It just sucks they are so expensive

I think Lemieux just posted that there really is no difference in the tranny
