    When I did mine I needed new bolts in the diff, a new 1st gear, a syncro and some seals.
    But the kicker was the 6 weeks for a new plastic speedo gear.

    A rebuilt box is probably the best option for longevity or an original from a wrecker if you are just going to sell it off.
    How many plastic speedo gears do you want,I have a box full.

        Haha i may aswell have payed you $200! The guy i took it to is charging me 300 for "diagnostics". Or to tell me that the problem with my speedo not working is exactly what i told him i thought the problem was when i took it there on Monday..... because it apparently took him 3 hours to connect to my ECU to figure out that the problem actually is in the gearbox

              What a ****.
              My mechanic said it took 5min to work it out. As soon as he dumped the gearbox oil he saw a rivet head in the pan.

              I usually get charged $20 for the scan, but nothing would come up for the gearbox issue.
              My mistake was to have it rebuilt in house, I should've just got a reco box, would have been quicker and maybe a little cheaper.
              A 2nd hand non reco box, still sporting the silly rivets, should be a lot cheaper option.
