Dave and I finished last night, the latest mod to my S, a 2005 AP2 Trans and a new clutch setup
The stage 3 Exedy Hyper single was a little to much for my liking so I sold it off and built a new to me setup.
I got a used Spec light pressure plate (about 3 lbs lighter than stock) off Jcarlton, an OEM flywheel machined to factory specs, and I bought a new OEM clutch disc and bearings from HardTopGuy. I took everything down to Jcarlton for cryo treated
The AP2 trans came from a wreck with 14K miles on it. The fluid was clean and all factory paint marks were in place. The only thing I had to do was change the rear flange on the tail of the trans that the drive/propeller shaft attaches to, the AP2

Still have tranny buzz? or did you not have that before?

S2KPUDDYDAD

I never had a trany buzz with my car The transmission was/is as smooth as glass I did however have a slight deceleration buzz with the Exedy clutch but, when I was running the OEM clutch she was very quite and smooth. The Exedy stage 3 setup is very aggressive and made a bit of chatter & buzz.
I did the 05 upgrade for better low end pull and to lower the RPM

OK, yeah we replaced pretty much every part of the clutch in my car and I still have major decel buzz. Now on to the tranny, as that is what it is most likely.

not to thread jack, but was causes the "tranny buzz"?

RadioZero

is this the AP2 tranny that was completely cryo'ed that jcarlton had for sale? i am curious if he still has that tranny for sale.

either way congrats on the upgrade!

Nice mod. Keep us updated!

No, jcarlton is selling an API cryo treated and built trans
He is asking $1400.00.... it is a great trany for an FI car

I think that the older cars (00-01) have that problum. I am guessing it is the transmission
My 02 did not have a buzz at all untill I put in the 6 puck clutch but, even with that clutch the buzz was very low and short, not bad.

so does it mean something may be going out, or is it pretty much a normal thing? because my my01 does it pretty bad
