So after the 1G I got didn't work out, I've been parting it out and should have it completely gone on Saturday.
A buddy is buying my transmission from TRE as well. I will have ~$2500 on hand when all is said and done. Friend of mine has a 95 for sale. Didn't say if AWD or FWD but I want the GSX. Has 133k miles on it. Black. Clean. Only rust is on rear quarter. 5spd. I'm a little leery though because of all this I hear about crankwalk and things like that. I have a couple spare things off the 1G I could throw on it (BOV, boost controller) What should I look out for? I know to look for strut tower rust and things like that now...

Alright so some details.
Kid came over in the car. When I walked out to it I thought it was slightly surging at idle but it turns out it is cammed. Has an intake and exhaust on it. GST. Not sure what else is done to it. All I know is he admitted to dogging the absolute hell out of it with 137k miles on it. We'll see. He wants the same amount I'm asking for my 1G tranny so who knows.. -------------------- If the sound of a DSM in the distance rowing through the gears gives you a hardon, you might be a car enthusiast.
