Default Just bought a 85 944

Well traded my eclipse gsx shell for one with 130k. Mint body just the kid launched the thing at 3k and something in the rear went so now it wont move? Im guessing complete rear end and tranny? How easy is it to drop it and change it? Can i bought a turbo trans up to it that way its stronger then the n/a ones?

Busted R&P most likely. Just replace the whole tranny, it will be cheaper. (double check your cv axles first, but usually it is the R&P that goes on clutch drops). You should be able to find a tranny for an NA for about 400 bucks. Hopefully he didn't shell the clutch.

I think book time on a tranny is 3-4 hours, but it is a pretty simple job that shouldn't take anywhere near that.
