ZF black/blue tag for 94
 

Since the car is apart I figured I'd replace the throwout bearing. The trans in my 94 is a black tag, not a blue tag. The collar does measure 1.305 like it should for a 94. Is my trans a replacement? Looks like it was never removed before I did. The tag number is 1052-000-081
Thanks :cheers:

That is what I would have expected for a '94 - there was once a bunch of very bad information out there regarding the transmissions , the tag etc. Your car if it hasn't had an aftermarket shifter installed should still have a "lift-ring" for reverse. I believe if you check the left side of the transmission you can likely find the VIN derivative on the case.

Very dependent maybe on miles I might prefer the TO that's there vs some of the replacement product that's out there.

**I just noticed the B&M shifter in your SIG so the lift-ring has gone away!!

Car has under 25 on it and the old one is perfect with no noise. I was going to change while it's apart till I saw the crazy prices. If it ever goes bad I'll just change out to a lightweight setup. I still have my original one from the GS somewhere in the garage attic.

I put the B&M in and yes it had the lift ring.

Vin is on it, it's the original.

As an aside, the earlier black tags are marked "Made in West Germany."

If you find you need a TO bearing I have an extra Valeo I can ship for $170.

If no takers I am interested if this is the 1.305 inch ID for Blue Label Transmission.
I have New Blue Label in 91', ZFdoc Black Label with short shifter in 95' and Blue Label being rebuilt with short shifter by ZFdoc as we speak ;)

Cliff,
If the OP is not interested it's yours. I have a lot of parts but usually don't sell unless someone is in need. Yes, this is the real deal for later model trans with INA04 bearing and insert collar. Not the cheap crap out there that is not worth the labor involved. I have another early model bearing too. I think I paid too much for it back in the day, but will dig it up and sell it too. I'm going to get rid of all the early model parts since my 95 will be my last ZR-1.

OK......let me know......and I really like the 95 but would never say that is my last ZR-1 :sign10:
The LT5s are just too much fun to work on :D
