Im looking for a good shop to get my GVR4 trans rebuilt, but i dont know any reputable ones out here except for shep or TRE, but they are too expensive, i need someone that will rebuild it back to stock, but i want to know that its of quality and is reliable, anyone have recommendations?? I desprately need someone who has a really good rep for trans rebuilds around here, thanks.
 
Devo Tuning. They are experts with DSM's and very well known for rebuilding tranny's and just about everything else. I got my turbo upgrade done by them and I can say nothing but good things. Not to mention their sick turnaround time! www.devotuning.com check em out.
 
Again, i need something not too expensive, im not looking to spend close to $1000 for a trans rebuild, im looking for $500-700 range if possible for good quality reputable work.

Good luck...
 
Devo's your best bet....AMS quality for 3/4 the price. Mind you these guys have built the fastest Evo in the world so if that isn't reputable enough than i'm not too sure what is.
 
alright ill give Devo a call today and see what the prices are, thanks guys, anyone else have any suggestions?

If you just need a stock tranny let me know.

If the price is right, then yes, yes i do, i just need a tranny

The local pick n pull <salvage yard> Here in kansas city has 2 one 91 and one 90 tsi awd. Transmissions are $100 bucks with a $15 core. Full money back if it doens't work.
 
yeaaa i think im goin to go with Devo, $400 to work on it plus parts, not a bad deal at all
 
Ugh, well I went with Devo, and they are real cool down there, i gave them my GVR4 trans, and everything is either seized or mashed to hell, basically all the gearsets, synchros, shift rails, bearings, everything is worthless, but thankfully i have another 90 trans, it works but need synchros, theyre gonna take that one and rebuild that one and not charge me for the shitty one
