I got a transmission from a friend for free
Story behind this is that a friend of a friend got a jdm motor/trans and it had yellow top injectors and a 16g on it. The trans was given to my friend but never used. my guess is that it was from an early evo 1-3 but i could be wrong..
Anyway on the trans it says in yellow paint "91-94 awd trans good" the spot where the stamped "w5m33" is supposed to be has been polished or filed off. so i have no real code to go off of here other than i know its a w5m33 transmission.
The transmission has a 23 spline output shaft and the tcase has the cast iron housing. Upon opening the transmission i found that it does have steel shift forks.
The transmission HAS been opened before as it has orange rtv to seal the case sections
synchros however look shiny and new without wear....
i read somewhere that the speedo gear is pink if you have an evo tranny with front lsd, not sure how true this is. the speedo gear ive got is white.
Any other telltale signs to help me figure out what kind of trans this is or what exactly it came out of?
