I agree a lot of people get the 2 confused even thought the 200 was a 3 speed , but it was the platform the 200 4r was built on because GM needed a smaller compact trans to fit in the cars they were building after they relized the faults in the metalolgy of the 200 they corrected them while engineering the 200 4r thats why in the late 80s the 2004 r4 was installed in a vast number of GM cars such as the buick grand national , monticarlo SS , caddilac and even the corvette just to name a few . Every tranmission has faults (week points) and most can be corrected and made better with the proper rebuild .
