Hi guys, Im planning on tearing the tranny out of my GN in a few weeks. My plan as of now is to do this:
A local tranny friend and I are going to rebuild my 200r4 ourselves, on our own time, not a shops time. Hes been doing trannys for a while, while I have only learned the basics about them in school. The deal is, I pay for all the parts, and costs, and he walks me through the rebuild step by step. IE-no shop fee. I want a strong tranny, but not a FULL RACE tranny. I dont have the $$$ for that. Basically, I need a list of all the parts I should use in rebuilding my 65K mile tranny. Clutches, bands, hard parts, etc. I plan on retaining the stock converter, but possibly having it gone through (probably a good idea). I need a rough estimate of what this will cost for just the parts since I gotta get the cash together soon.
Just in case this helps, my tranny isnt too bad now, but is getting VERY soft. No flares that I can tell, but it doesnt feel the same as when I got it about 2 years ago. I want to replace all the parts I can inside though........I thought about just doing a shift kit, but thats not a good alternative I have heard.
Anyhow, Ive been kinda rambling......but I need to know what list of parts is a good idea for a budget rebuilt that will last about 3 years or so until I can afford a professional rebuild
. I probably go to the race track 10 times during the summer, about 30 passes a year I guess. Im not out there every single weekend.
