Joe Title: Re: wtb: getrag 5-speed Post by: aaron88 on January 27, 2005, 11:39:03 am Getrag 5 speed isn't a cheep conversion unless you get lucky and find one in a Fiero.
What do you consider cheep. Aaron . Title: Re: wtb: getrag 5-speed Post by: Rob on January 27, 2005, 05:22:43 pm Fiero shop... Im not looking for the whole car.. Im looking for the tranny/cables/gearshift.. I dont know if I wanna put how much I consider cheap incase someone thinks cheap is cheaper then me!
Title: Re: wtb: getrag 5-speed Post by: aaron88 on January 27, 2005, 05:34:08 pm Okay then, my getrag conversion;
Transmission Front transmission bracket Rear transmission bracket Shift cable Select cable Shifting assembly Clutch peddle and assembly Brake peddle Clutch master cylinder Clutch slave cylinder Steel hydraulic line Shift cable bracket Select cable bracket Cast iron clutch fork lever FWD conversion brackets About $1000 for the list, plus a clutch and flywheel. The price also kind of depeds on what you have now. I'm assuming that you have an auto? Aaron . Title: Re: wtb: getrag 5-speed Post by: Rob on January 27, 2005, 05:56:31 pm I already have the following:
clutch line, clutch master cylinder, clutch pedal assembley. clutch and pressure plate Im ording from the states.. it will be a spec stage 3.. Title: Re: wtb: getrag 5-speed Post by: aaron88 on January 27, 2005, 05:59:57 pm You could save yourself about $500 by getting a Fiero 282 transmission with brackets. But they are hard to find.
It does seem like Joe is saying that he has one already. What's the price Joe with all the brackets and maybe cables? Aaron . Title: Re: wtb: getrag 5-speed Post by: Slammed Fiero on January 28, 2005, 04:18:37 pm If your not particularly attached to the car you have , sell it and Buy a 5spd. It's a cheaper undertaking than converting.
I used an 89 Cavalier tranny and incl. the Rebuild with some better internals I am at about $2300.. Plus the cost of the flywheel and the Clutch Im just a bit over $3000. My advice..find a 5spd car.

I only sell the cables new, I have a few 282 tranny's most are from a FWD. I might have one from an 88? but have to make sure first. The price of the FWD 282 are $500, if I have one from a Fiero with all brakets it's $750. I already have the front tranny 282 fiero braket custom made, I'm going to have the rear one made too, since my used stock is running low.It does seem like Joe is saying that he has one already.

Aaron I can get the same ones for $250-300 too, but the milage is very high. I all ways look for something that has low K's, in the long run it's saves both the purchaser on future repairs and myself having to do the work a second time. O0 Joe .

I here you, doing something twice is only half as fun as doing it once. So there you have it. Roll the dice 282 for $250 or one you can trust more, for $500. |
