    BG GTX 5 speed trans Weight

    Does anyone know how much the trans weighs? I need the weight for a shipping quote.

    about 180lbs. cost Jho (NH) $200 on a pallet to ship to me (MT).
    No car! I soldz it. Now I have a truck. I like it, but apparently it has a hard time keeping up with a slightly modified 4WD protege with half the hp. Neat.

        lol. noo, I think I'll be nice to the GTR for now, have the old 4wd as a backup for it. and the second 4wd is going to remain stock for now. maybe in a couple years I'll upgrade the drivetrain.

                no kidding....I hate moving the spare 4wd trans around. I need one of those tiny 4 wheel dollys meant for moving big toys around the garage. this is a big toy! haha

                  Well I think it might have been a GTR transmission because it weighed over 200 pounds! I had to take it all apart to get it low enough to ship, I ended up having to ship 3 packages!

                      yep on ebay to someone in Austrailia, but I only had to ship it to California. I gotta drop the $$ into repair panels and a MIG. Don't worry the MX-3 is getting a BPT (and possibly AWD) next year as a graduation present from myself.

                          no it was just the transmission, no fluid at all

                            well at least the bp and gtr trans weighs less than the 1.8L v6 with trans in the mx-3 cause my car with bp / gtr trans and some other stuff in it sits about 6-8 inches higher than normal the wheel gap is insane

                              someday I'll find out what a KL and GTR weigh together going to be one heavy front end.
