Well it had to happen!

A spirited launch, a shift to second and a loud bang! ooooops

Managed too get home with 1st, 4th gear and the sound of swarf getting eaten

Oh well, uprated engine and clutch, something had to die. Lucky she's book into Steve's on Tuesday for her 70k service.

Hello Zen, May have to get that DCCD box we spoke about afterall

Lucky the plaster is off so I can walk !!

 

Sorry to here the bad news , hope you get it sorted soon ...

 

Unlucky mate.

It must be a Saturday thing. I managed to shred third during a spirited drive this afternoon. Gearbox has lasted all of two months

 

Thats a bit of a bummer.... Means i won't hear the car burble past my work for awhile.. Hope you get it fixed soon and see ya around.

 

Jason, Where abouts do you work dude?

Anyhow, gave Steve a call earlier and left a msg.He rang back and asked me to meet him at 1pm at his garage as he was popping over,dropped the Wagon out to him
so he did'nt have to pick her up on Tuesday.

note: this is a Sunday, yet again Steve has been a top bloke and proven independents give service you cant put a price on,beats a shiney show room and free coffee.
10+/10 mate.

So, she is now in Steve's safe hands and I am waiting on the news. PSW has probably started the next phase?

See you up QE on Sunday.

 

Woooops!

We did 4 gearbox rebuilds last week, must be something catching!

Not put your name down for th Power FC groupbuy yet...

Liz

 

And it all started with a nice cuppa tea the other week !...... also nothing to do with Brett using the Wagon!
(before nutty conspiracy theories start )

I Aint fogotten Liz, at the moment im planning on sorting more than just a remap. Ideally wanna try and get some of the new Cosworth Subaru parts fitted. We got some pucka stuff coming out.

Mr.PiggyBank meet Mr.5lb LumpHammer!!

 

Oh no! I'm sure Steve will get her back on the road soon

 

oh well, spoke to Steve earler. A wee bit more damage than 1st thought. Gonna have the box totally stripped and rebuilt now as most/all of 2nd gear has spead itself nicely inside the rest of the gearbox. Get her back end of next week

 

Got a PM from Paul @ Zen, gearbox is ready to collect.

Took abit longer than planned due to amount of damage caused and Zens long list of work. Should have Wagon back on road next week ???? Now can start planning ahead for Project Stealth Wagon again.

Hav'nt driven for ages !! just means I cant get pi55ed so much and scrounge lifts bet the neighbours have loved the quiet !! LOL

 

Thats good news! You better hurry up with healing all those other body parts you've broken though!!!

 

Thats great news.... See you on the road again very soon....
