I've been building my car since Sept of 1999. Like Allan Said only buy new, unless it's a part from someone you know and trust. may take longer to save but it's worth the less stress in the long run.

I've simply learned that if it's a daily driver stay away from the race tracks. Unless you have some other means of transportation and are willing to deal with the problems/headaches of breakage. Higher HP dsm's simply don't last long at the tracks. Typically the tranny's are the weakest area. they can take just about any street abuse you can through at it but the effects of launching at the tracks and full out 4 gear runs really take it's toll on the car.

I raced 2 years with my FWD went through 6 tranny's in 7 months, I then stopped going to the tracks for 2 years and didn't go through a single tranny in all that time. Even though you could find me out of the streets all the time. As well as driving it to work and back.
