Contact Dave @ www.tripleedgeperformance.com.
He will set you up with a transmission that will LAST, and for less than the cost of a factory rebuilt unit.

Do this whether you're modding or not, since bolt-ons are not the root cause of our trans failures.

Make sure to check your transmission fluid according to the instructions in the owner's manual and make sure it's at operating temperature which is about 190 to 200 degrees.

By the way, I just looked it up for you in the owner's manual. It says to change the transmission AKA "automatic transaxle" fluid and filter every 50,000 miles if you drive it aggressively (which probably means almost every single GXP owner) or 100,000 miles if normally. Glad I looked it up. I'm at 40k. Says DEXRON VI as well, takes 7.4 quarts (7.0 liters) of fluid. Seems like a lot of fluid! Our cars only need 6 quarts of oil (5.7 liters).
I checked the '02 Camaro SS's owners manual and it says to change the fluid every 15k miles (!!!!) if it's an automatic and driven aggressively. If not aggressively, then every 50k. It goes on to say that the fluid never needs to be changed in a Camaro with manual transmission. Weird. Had our's changed at like 17k miles last year. Says the automatic transmission takes a massive 10.8 quarts (10.2 liters) and the manual transmission takes 4 quarts (3.8 liters).
I learned something new today.
