Transmission and drivetrain Project

bryanf89 · 05-15-2010, 09:22 AM

i got the r154 out and cleaned it up, much to my surprised it had been rebuilt, looks like under 10,000miles on it...i put in new gaskets and ball bearing where needed...i installed everything but have a problem that will be fixed tomorrow...air got caught in the clutch system, im bleeding out the system, putting in new fluid, along with a stainless stain clutch line...ill keep u guys updated

Turns out we put the clutch backwards -__-

the car is running and i drove it for about 10mins, before the car turned off because of a short circuit...the time i did get to drive was pure bliss, the lightweight flywheel and driveshaft makes a HELL of a difference...it felt like a new engine was making all that power...other than the battery i could say transmission project is closed =)

Nice thread, I've been dying to try a lightweight flywheel and driveshaft.... Figure I should focus on getting my engine running first lol

Well, my GE has a spun bearing. So rather than rebuild that, I'm gathering parts for a N/A-T swap and getting some front end pieces I've been needing. Hopefully I'll be acquiring a 7MGTE in the near future from someone in town and then I can start rebuilding that
