Norbie Forums Junkie Location: Brisbane Registered: May 2002	RIP: W57 *** now with pics *** Mon, 29 March 2004 00:28 Well it finally happened... the ex-RA60 W57 transmission finally died behind the 2JZ-GTE. I'm actually surprised it lasted this long, and considering it cost $175 I reckon I got pretty good value for money! I was expecting this box to die but I'm kind of pissed off it chose to die when I was at Byron Bay at 4am Sunday morning. I had to catch a lift back to Brisbane, convince a friend with a ute to drive back to Byron with me, hire a car trailer and tow the bastard back home. Talk about a pain in the arse! From the sounds of things the damage is much more severe than what I did to the old W58... I suspect I stripped some teeth off the layshaft gears. I'll know later in the week when I drop the box out and pull it apart. I'll get some pics and post them here; I'm sure it will be quite amusing! Now here's a question: does anyone know if I can take 3rd gear out of the W57 (assuming it's still OK) and put it in the W58 which is fine apart from missing teeth on 3rd? This will save me from buying another box and I'll also get a proper 5th gear again, as opposed to the barely-overdriven 5th on the W57 which is a complete waste of time! I've never done anything like this on a transmission before; is it difficult to do? Any special tools required? Any help appreciated!
