G50 Prices and strength.

This for a project car that got offered for almost no money.

Long shot but has anybody bought a Porsche G50 lately. Or know the current market prices, I have a complete external case with no internals but thinking it might be easier to just get a complete unit.

Also any idea on HP rating on these boxes. The car has a blown 4.6 chevy bolted to the box and total car weight ~1350lb's (That's not a typo) but it has huge rear tires 375 with semi sticky tires. .

This was on Pelican recently. Sale pending.

"FS G50/05 trans non limited slip, out of a 1993 c2 with 60000 miles.It was check out by a local Porsche shop and is in great condition. project changed direction asking $2700 plus shipping OBO . It is located in 11801 NY Td914@aol.com"

Here's another:

This is the last chance to sell them. otherwise it looks like the two transmissions might be traded for a\ 6 speed 993

This is the last price I can do:

G50-05 from a 1994 non LSD $2500 G50-05 from a 1992 Factory LSD $3500

2WD they come bare = No hydraulic parts, no clutch pieces, no trans mount, no starter ...ect

Excellent shape

Located in Los Angeles

shipping is $150-250 depending where you live + $65 for a shipping container

Its really really ugly. I do have a line on another 550 spyder though so I am waiting to hear back on that before I proceed with buying the monster though.

Not the actual car its still in gel coat and is tube framed. I did built a VW framed one a long time ago and loved it. This is a big step up though in power, is mid engined and has real suspension and brakes not VW stuff.

OK so 3K or so minus what I can get for my empty case.

Actually your right its a 4.7 not 4.6 durr.

That looks kind of like a Piontek.

the Ultima GTR guys uses these transaxles as do the replicar GT40 crowd and the FF GTM builders, and I've heard they're good to around 450 ft/lbs with the turbo sets able to do more, they can be to made to stand up to serious power (you're looking at ~$10k rebuild including strengthened gearset) but can find used units in the $2500-5000 price range. If you were going to buy and rebuild, at that money you can start looking for a Porshce Cayman (newer, more expensive than a G50 ~$7500, and able to do up to around 500 ft-lbs), Ricardo (out of a Ford GT ~ $10000), or on up to full-race transaxles where the sky's the limit...
