chances of finding a low miles / mint gray on gray lustre '01? Think mine's clapped?
 

noids in the tranny have been going for a while so has the trans it's self.

sounds like the valve shim thingies and the new chinese idelr or power steering pump are making noise too?

finnalyl ost all my gears. but, it's so hard to leave someone who's been there for you thick and thin. she's tough but, technically she could be restored.

also have a ton of new parts on it too!

i figure an 01 with gray interior and gray luster with a 3.0 DE-K GLE are pretty slim.

They're dirt cheap with under 100k mi. Buy one and replace solenoids before installing.

all i ever see is are 02s and 03s??? maybe i have to settle and convert it to look like an 01. how weird to change a car to look different than something not designated by the VIN (aside from actual custom mods)

also welcome any suggestions here

I mean the transmissions. You cannot buy a cheap 02-03 unless you're a wizard. Engines are all shot. And then you're gonna have to delete the precats even if you can find a low mileage one.

What does “clapped” mean, and what’s a “noid”?

Trashed solenoids. Trannys are a dime a dozen on car-part.com.
