Picked up a tranny, details and pics in side........
Friday, December 12, 2008 6:49 PM
well no im not like that first of all. and yes i got a TRANSMISSION got it for $360 delivered to my door bought it off of Cavalier2000. GREAT guy to deal with. did all the leg work removing it for me and met with the delivery guy. A++++ to this guy. mine was acting up all last year and then 2nd and 5th gear synchros were going out on me. so this is supposed to have 10,000 miles on it. cant wait to get it swapped out and just tear apart the other for fun. going to wait til the shop is built and use the lift though, make things much easier. here are the pics...

yeah come to find out it is from a saturn vue, from what everyone is telling me, but good news is i can take the internals and swap them over to my stock case and use them. it is a 4.11 FDR instead of the 3.94. which is still going to be ok for me. and i plan to do a new stock clutch and resurfaced flywheel while im in there.

The Saturn Vue FDR is more like 4.41:1...... being turboed, first and second are going to be pretty much useless...... and your HWY RPMs are going to be pretty high.

Wow, 4.41:1? Everything I have seen said 4.11:1. Thats a huge difference.

Are you scared of the changes coming? The answer is on the inside.

I can agree that first and maybe second would be useless. I have 4.11's in my Isuzu and with the GM SC I blew through first gear. I would like to get my hands on an Isuzu SOHC tranny and swap out 1st and 2nd gears which may help a little. Cruising @ 70 mph, I my tach reads 3k

I don't regret changing the FDR, but I think that maybe the higher FDR's will help out an NA or NOS car more than a boosted one.

I am on my 3rd Isuzu. The first 2 were stock and the 3rd I upgraded the diff and changed the gears. ( 4.11's, 2.2 3rd and 4th, and EP LSD ) The only reason I like the Getrag more is because I can get a Quaife ( or OBX ) and change the differential easier than an Isuzu

I thought the only difference between the cav and vue tranny was 5th gear. Or am i looking at this stupid thing completely wrong
