yep i'm in the club too. 3rd gear sux for me. i was racing this 3rd gen lude last night and could not get it to go into 3rd. pissed me off. i found a used tranny near me from a you pull it junkyard with 80k miles on it for only $250. a few bibles on the inside of the car so i know some bible grinder had it last and was not tearing the hell out of it. well, i hope not.
