Angry Iiiiitttt'sss tranny time!

Soo after my adventures at the track lastnight, today left my place to go do laundry and the tranny is slipping really bad at low temp, far as my testing of it goes so far. So what i want to know is what parts i should upgrade when it comes out and i rebuild it, I want to make a big list so i can start gathering parts. If you have a link to a website where i can get the part's that would be great also. Ill be looking through the forums and stuff later to try and find links when i have time, just posting this to get ahead lol.

Thanks

Have you checked your fluid? Make sure its full and check the color. dark brown or black fluid color spells burned clutch packs. Might have a bad converter.

Torsen diff. It's hard to find and expensive though.
