AP2 and AP1 transmissions and parts.
Particulars:
Matt Chaboud - 312.504.7702 - s2k.mlc@chaboud.com - San Francisco, CA
OBO prices:
AP2: $900
AP1: $300
Both: $1100
Possible trades:
AP2 Center console.
White TE37's (what can I say? I'm a sucker for white on black)
Shipping:
Willing to ship at buyer expense, but would prefer to do local pickup.
Details:
AP2 transmission from a total loss roll of a sub-200 mile 2008 S2k. Bought for $1500, and put into a 2002 for 500 or so miles (story below). Smoother shifting than my babied '02. Buyer gets claim over spare parts. VIN: JHMAP214XS001023
Frontmost:
Up close:
AP1 transmission bought from S2ki bay area local, no VIN, never put in a car while owned by me. Unsure of condition, but it appears to have all of its parts.
Frontmost:
Up close:
Spare parts:
Backstory:
Driving the S2k from Chicago to San Fran, a strange creaking/buzzing/grinding noise slowly surfaced in Nevada. I had the car flat-bedded from Reno to San Francisco Honda (not knowing where to go), and they informed me that I needed a new transmission. When I told them that it sounded like it was coming from the back, they said that they'd stethoscoped it, and that it would cost roughly $8000.
Figuring I could move to an AP2 box for half that, I bought both the AP2 and AP1 boxes, had itS2Krazy do the AP2 swap, and the noise was still there. The guys at The Garage in San Francisco identified the left-rear wheel bearing as the culprit. I thought I was hearing something in the AP2 tranny, so I had The Garage swap back to the original only to find that the thing that I was hearing was A) still there and B) no problem. At this point, my car was back to bone stock, and I decided to leave it that way.
Which brings us to the transmissions that have been sitting in a closet for half a year. I'm really looking to get these out of here, ASAP. The frustrated sighs from my wife let me know that I need to get these out of what is supposed to be her home office.
Thanks,
Matt
