My poor gearbox has given up on me again.

This time it was 5th gear/top gear. LOL. Wasn't gunning it to much either.

Really want to know what power this thing is pushing out now.

time for a PPG or something similar. Wish 6speeds wernt so expensive.

 

Bloody hell, you're not having much luck at all are you

How many is that now?

 

Well.........

It's the same casing just the contents have changed 3 times.

I need some Tech. Help please follow the link.

Thanks guys.

 

Perhaps it's time that I gave you driving lessons then...

I think your right though a PPG kit would be a good idea as I think a 6 speed gearbox would ruin the drivability of the RA but perhaps a P1 longer 5th gear would be a good move.

 

I second the above Dyl. Got to be cheaper in the long run.

 

Really love the ratios in Ty's C. And they are very simular to my 1-5 but it has the added benifit of 6.

Plus I would have larger driveshafts, 180diff and a very strong gearbox.

PPG are having a bad name lately.??..

Really tempted by Dave ESP's classic right now.

 

It'll be like having lessons off Captain Slow.

Not related are you Ty???

LMFAO. Sorry Ty.

 

Didn't Captain Slow take the Bugatti Veyron to 268mph?

I think that the ratios in the Spec C are the same as a JDM STi which are different to the UK STi.

 

Gutted for you man, mines completely given up also. Lost 1st and 2nd. We're just using them as they are meant dylan but the boxes cant keep up. Not sure if this guy will have any info for you www.gears.tv

I've tried to contact him as the common faults seem to be what has happened to me twice.

 

Gutted to hear the news, how much you looking at paying for a replacement box?

 

As little as posible. LOL.

From the valleys see, tight as a duck ***.

Willing to pay good money as long as they can proof it's a good one.

 

Have you tried Jap Performance Parts? seem like a good breaker.

 

Dylan I'm sorry to hear the Beast is ill !! I hope you get it sorted very soon Mate

 

To be honest the PPG arn't as cheap as a 6 speed,

Normally around £2.5k for the gear kit, so around £3k fitted, I know you would fit it yourself, you can get a 6 speed set for around £2k.

Scoobyclinics gear kit seem to be proforming better than the PPG stuff at the moment, running 600BHP/600LBS in drag use and coping quiet well, think it is around £2.5k

I feel your pain mate, i've literally just finished swapping the gearbox and diff over found the gearbox rear seal has gone and its pissing oil.

To say i'm f***ed off is an understatement.

 

Ouch. Sorry to hear that Mat.

I have cancelled insurance and put the car up on Axel stands ready for engine removal, gearbox removal and a full strip down ready for the paint. Will do the same as what I did last time and remove everything and get it all bead blasted and powder coated. Get some nice bits for it and get it back together for next summer. Hopfully stronger and faster then ever.

AND maybe a liltle quieter. But I don't know yet. No one really coments on it?

 

The one you have just brought is pissing oil?? you ain't having much luck with gearboxes mate

 

Yep.

Took it for a little drive down the road and back, I jacked the car back up and checked the underneath to make sure everything was okay still and found oil pissing out from the back of the box where the prop shaft goes in.

 

Bite the bullet Dylan and go 6 speed cheaper in the long run + the box will always have a good value. If the cars coming off the road for the winter loads of time to track down all the bits.

 

Oh dear Matt that's a royan pain in the ****.

 

sorry to hear this guys hope you get them sorted soon

 

Sorry to hear this, at least you can do it all yourself and save one the labour.

On a better note, I fitted the caliper and am now back on the road.

Thanks, Rich.

 

Good news Rich. Have fun in Germany.

If you stumble across a 6 speed by any chance. Pop it in the boot for me.

 

If I see a S14 lying around me and the lads will grab it for you
