for you A/T-ers

just got my tranny rebuilt with a new Torque converter, shift kit and endclutch.

gotta tell you. it's gotta be one of the best investment i've ever spent on this car.

at this point, i don't know what i can tell ya!.. this baby shifts better than anything i've ever seen. i don't think there's any manual that shifts as perfect as this car right now. not to mention the significant increase in some extra ponies. "i got the power!!!" ~ :ylsuper:

if you're looking for a cost/benefit upgrade. definitely get yourself a high stall converter and shift kit. get it from IPT if you can. they're the best.

Nice! About time someone on here upgraded the AT and can back up what I've been saying for years :D

kevin what happened to your car?.. did you blow your engine?

How much did it cost you? Those were my next mods :D (also a tranny cooler though) haha

the parts cost me about $600 total. and to put it on, it costed me about $650. a better cooler is definintely a good idea. i should've gotten that too.

:D

Where did you get your parts? I'm having a hard time finding them for my a604 tranny.

Also anyone know if the NT tranny's already have a tranny cooler or is it only the turbo cars that have them?

only the 2G's have tranny cooler. it's located at the same place where your SMIC is located BUT on driver's side.

A/T DSM is nothing without IPT. definitely get all your tranny parts from them. i am not saying this to promote them, but they really just have the best service i've ever seen. the owner john is a super nice guy and won't try and rip you off. he'll customize each individual TC for your vehicle. go here http://www.importperformancetrans.com/gmauto.shtml

Congrats on the tranny upgrade! When is the bigger turbo coming ;)?

Glad to hear the new parts are working out for you. Did it solve the idle problem?

It sounds like its time to take it to the track :). Let me know when you want to go.
