First of all, I know nothing about these things, hence my original question. I did a cursory google search and also on eBay, perhaps the ones I saw were used, I have no idea but the 1500-1700 range stuck in my head and had to be relegated to 2nd position after a new set of wheels/tires.

Pinion tool for 915s is a lot less $. What is the voodoo behind setting these up or making a tool at a reasonable price? Torsen makes great units for domestic cars well under $1000 ($700 for the good one) - and they aren't hard to install....but they aren't transaxle either. This segment is aching for competition, it seems.

Love my GT LSD. Lot of lowball Haber's floating around. Can't imagine the job being done properly for any less than spyrex mentioned

I know who to send my trans to if Im shipping it. (hint: they're in this thread.) But does anyone have a recommendation for a builder in the Mid Atlantic, say between DC and NYC? Bonus points if they're near Philadelphia.

check with Tim Holt in WC

he seems reputable and knows the 964 and 993

I'm not from the area but i visited during an "on the road for work and need to see some cool cars." episode. he was very hospitable and immensely knowledgeable.

or Brubaker in allenton

Tim is great. His engine builder did my 964 motor and has done a few for my fathers 911's over the last few decades. Unfortunately I don't believe he is the guy to go to for a built trans. Maybe Tim has someone else, I can certain ask. Thanks.

For Guard authorized dealers, Dougherty will be the closest to Philly. Down towards DC you've got Sloan at SSI or the guys at TPC. Going north there's a ton of options in Jersey. There's Body Motion, Precision, Powertech, Protosport and probably a couple others I'm not remembering off the top of my head.

Thanks! Safe to say an authorized dealer is automatically an authorized installer?
