Default Gearbox Went BANG!

driving along a dual carriageway yesterday and the bleeding thing went bang.
Pulled off the road after travelling along 1/4 of a mile slowing everything down.

Gonna be a pricey one this.

Really wanna stick with the Type RA box.

Oh well, could've been worse, the engine could've gone bang!

Have a word with David at API, He sorted mine and SIMB's out after they went bang.

Only slightly more expensive than sourcing a 2nd hand box, plus you get a warranty and the peace of mind knowing it's been rebuilt properly.

This makes me think of the thread in Technical where a lad wants to put modded STI power through an GX gearbox !!
