FTO gearbox problems

[Deevon]

im posting this up for a mate cause i knew someone here would be able to help

i have a mate who just purchased an fto with a shot gearbox. Its the tip tronic/auto one, and the motor in the 6 cylinder version.
He got quoted over $1000 for one from a couple of wreckers, and im thinking fuck that, id want it installed for that much too.
I think the gearbox is a F4A42 or something....im just wondering if these come in any other mitsu's, or something that wasnt an import so he doesnt pay the premium. Or even if someone has a cheap solution/source. ( a rebuild isnt an option btw)
thanks for any assistance.
if anyone knows a good aussie mitsu forum that has a good classifieds let me know of that too

ah the old 6a12 auto has fucked out aye.

i'm not 100% sure but i think the 92-96 shape galants use the same FF auto box, as they're equipped with the 6a12's too. Well, the jap spec ones anyway.

Here's a site that could probably answer your questions better than me......
