[motoman399]

so i just recently swapped out my auto trans for a 5 speed... i was wondering what everyone has done with there auto's, do you sell them. like do people actually buy them? or do you just throw them away??? please help i want it out of my garage. oh its out of a 98 with 135,XXX miles

[srpowered240sx]

call arcata transmission, or johns used cars; i bet they will give you a few bucks for it. if not, im sure one of the repair shops will take it for free, hell, i just gave my buddy a blown 5 speed i swapped out of my brothers car. the bearings were toast, gears were good, he said hes gonna use it for parts.

Mine was no good, so I just left it at the shop. I took the speed sensor out and sold it to someone though.

You could try selling everything as an manaul to auto swap. I'm taking all my stuff to the locak junk yard after I swap mine.

I'm hoping that by repeatedly slamming it from reverse to drive to reverse to drive at about 20 mph will cause so much damage the the transmission falls out. Then I saved myself the hassle of actually having to remove it and I can not worry about what to do with it. I'll just toss it.

haha i was thinking about that lol. didnt think it would work though. haha

[motoman399]

ya ill try that tomorrow. the thing is huge and heavy and my mom hates looking at it in the garage lol. hey by the way john do you have an intercooler you want to get rid of??

[ken240sx]

I'm thinking about gutting mine, cleaning it up, and making a cool piece of furniture or art with it...I don't really know yet....maybe I'll make it into a time capsule, fill it with cool stuff, and bury it in the Huachuca mountains near Mexico. Hell, I may just try to sell it to one of the honda ricers across the street as a high performance 4spd auto that can handle twice the hp of their trans....takes custom fab work to mount.

[motoman399]

i like the one with the honda guys... tell them it has hondata already installed... youll sell it for CHEAP hahaha

Dropped it in the dumpster. I lol'd as it crushed everything under it and sank to the bottom like the titanic.
