Alright so over the past two days myself and Nowell have been wrenching on my Eclipse to change out the rear main seal. In the process we mushroom'd one of my axles and broke my speed sensor... but that ain't ****. Today as I'ma bout to put the tranny back in one of my boys at the shop notices a quarter-sized hole inside the bell housing. We also find some teeth laying around in what was originally thought to be a puddle of oil (actually Pennzoil Synchromesh). My rear main seal was fine. I was never leaking oil... I was leaking gear lube. So that's my problem. What I'm asking from you guys is to see if you (or anyone you know) knows about any local FWD turbo DSM trannies for sale. Oh, if you hear of any passenger side turbo DSM axles or DSM speed sensors, please let me know. Thanks for any help.

 

I assume that you speak with Sly and his DSM counterparts, but they would be a good place to go...

Hope you get this worked out...inexpensively

 

Yeah, I'ma send him a PM.

 

I was talking to one of my friends the other day and he told me that he knew someone that might have an eclipse that he's parting out. I'll give him a call ane let you know if he has one or knows someone else that might have one.

 

Sweet man, thanks.

I'm living up to my sig quote today...

 

Yeah, I know how it can be sometimes. At first I was feeling bad about selling my eclipse a few weeks ago, then I thought about all of those long night building the block or replacing the tranny a few times. I know that comes with modding, but I'm enjoying not having to stay up all night in the garage

 

I just though I'd use my 1000th post to see if anyone found anything...

 

I got my supra friends checking things out trying to find a tranny, should hear something today. Ill let you know.

 

Sweet, thanks. I'ma hit up some junk yards and I'ma give MachV a call to see if they have/know of any.

 

Damn Tony, sorry to hear that. I'll ask around and let you know if I find something, my neighbor deals with junkers in Bradywine all the time, I'll ask him today!!! Edwin.

 

I was going to say that next. Try Brandywine, they have alot of eclipse parts there.

 

Damn, I've only found one tranny so far, and they want $1300 for it... that's ****ing bull****.

I called Brandywine and they didn't have any, so they referred me to this other place that is charging a rediculous amount for a used DSM tranny. I called like 8 other places around here and in the Rockville area, but no luck so far.

This sucks.

 

Hey bro, my friend has the word out on the supra forums, so far, no luck, but im still trying!

EDIT** ill ask around at the meet this Friday too

 

I'll be there on Friday...

 

Kick ***. Work is sending me out to San Fran on Thurs/Fri of next week but I plan on catching the redeye back for the show on the 29th. So I plan on playin hard this weekend. Maybe we can get Mike and Brent to go down to the dirty and **** with the ricers =)

 

I'll be down in the area early on Fri so I can beat trraffic... I gotta go to MachV and then I don't know what the hell I'ma do.

 

Im off on Friday, give me a call, ill probably just be working on my car in my parking spot

 

No doubt man.
