Before and after

[darksky]

My old truck did that (GMC Sierra sold it a long time ago). I believe it was that way by design; to keep some moron from shifting in the R by mistake. I'll bet if you first place it in any forward gear and then into reverse, you won't grind at all. Let us know

You're absolutely right. I found that out a couple weeks ago trying to back out of a parking spot. Works everytime.

Isnt that because there is no syncro on reverse? I know my 89 will grind going into reverse if you are even moving the slightest bit. Because of no syncro, Im unsure if the t56 has a syncro.

[darksky]

I think that is setup as such intentionally -- a safety "feature" if you will. Odds are if you're crusing along and accidently attempt to shift into R, you'll hear and feel the grind before you let out the clutch.

Yep, it's happened.

Nothing looks better than a clean black TA if I do say so myself.

Not that I'm biased or anything.

I second that one. Best looking car ever!!

[Jay 02 TA ws6]

Indeed.

[95TransAm]

Gonna have to agree myself

[DanB.]

Wurd. Behold... the power of ZAINO!!!

One more nod for the black T/A.....I think it all started with a movie.....

[DJ Taso]

Black is by far the best when its clean, but the worst when it's dirty. Silver and white don't look to bad on a T/A either.

I beg to differ, purple f-bodies are the $hizznit!!!

[darksky]

I put my 4L60E on Ebay, but the deal never went thru. If anyone's interested I still have it.

Do you still have your tranny? If not, how much did you get for it (thinking of adding an M6 to mine).

Old topic. But, DJ, if you read this... What color is your interior? Is that black? Your console and dash looks the same color as mine. What color seats do you have? Is that a dark charcoal, or is it black? I like the color. I have the gray interior. I'm wondering if it would look cool if I swapped out my carpet, seats, and center console with a dark charcoal gray, and just left my dash in. It's a darker gray itself. (Car is white w/gray interior, and I hate the gray seats and carpet.) If I went with black interior, the dash would look outta place I think....
