transmissions

[NickDromez]

my transmission is starting to die and im wondering whether there is a different tranny that can swap into the vr4. i see alot of the eagle/talon trannys for sale, and it is an awd turbo 5 speed, that runs off of a 4g63t. so can i take an eagle tranny and put it into my vr4 with no problems?

Yes. You can take a AWD 1g Eagle Talon, Mitsubishi Eclipse, Plymouth Laser (DSM) transmission and put it in the GVR-4 no problem. You will have a slightly shorter 1st gear, but that's about it.

You have to do slight mods to get a 90 trans in there but the 91-94 is a direct fit from my understanding.

that's good to know! My trani is on its way out as well by all the crazy pinging noises it makes.

 

[NickDromez]

nice, thank you. i think i will go look for a tranny now.

are you sure its not the fluid?

Quoting TRBODSM:

i think its the shifter bracket assembly needs to be changed.

 

just be sure you get a tranny with the right number of splines to mate up to your T-case and the rest should be fine. As said above the VR-4 1st gear is a little longer, but other than that the 1g's are the same.

+1 make sure that the transmission output shaft spline count (either 22 or 23) matches the transfer case input shaft when to go to find a new transmission.
