lol i dunno man Turbosupra12 sold me this car i got it with a HORRID clutch so i replaced it, still had the vibration. the axles would rotate almost 180* before any tension was put on them. i mean spinning them in my hands when doing my clutch. this happened the day i was taking my gf back to school i accelerated normally ( car wasnt cert or E tested) so i had to take er easy. i acceled n then it went tink tink tink blaaaaah. i got it to move a foot in 1st gear then a foot back in Reverse. so eventually towed it to Silex's place with our other buddies focus.Last edited by Racethisescort89; 03-04-2010, 10:50 PM.

yeah it vibrates like hell because the axle can rattle around once the spider gears are smashed. i had this happen to one of my transmissions.Escort GTR -- 11.87 @ 117.6 mph -- 320 HP / 325 Ft. Lbs. @ 23 PSI

didnt touch the casing lol was perfect. Silex and I cleaned it all up internally, and the weirdest thing was the trans fluid was red. not sparkly, THAT i will never understand.come this spring im gonna probably swap for a better clutch and put 80W90 Gear oil in the trans this summer i plan on being very hard on the poor goat
