Well I kinda figured the ol cruiser wouldnt be able to put up with my racing habits for too long. It doesnt upshift and anything past half throttle, it just slips. At first the check engine light came on, it stuck to 2nd gear and basically went into limp mode. Im taking it in on friday to see the grand damage. I never brake torqued it once or any neutral drops, just went though the gears normally. Didnt even last a year. WHat a shitty trans.
A stupid question must be asked though. Is it a total waste of time and money for a 5spd swap? I have to ask, since the auto let me down.
