I’m sorry to hear ReeceZ

But it’s strange, I’m pushing some good power through my Gearbox and its never failed shifting from 3rd to 4th on full power she grinds a little but noting to crazy.

Its just weird because some guys I have spoken to say they go through gearbox's like crazy, I wonder if some year model box's are stronger?

And mine is a 94 model. Hey Ryan, I broke my gearbox on purpose so I don't have to race rat, also I can keep your car company. So hows about the anime then 😂

PFB it seems as if the gearbox had run out of oil, we will know more later on. But ja he doesnt have enough power to break the box in 4th.

I am on my 2nd gearbox now with my SX, I keep killing 2nd gear, it still works fine but just makes a noise in second. These boxes arent that strong. I doubt the boxes would vary at all, might get ones that have been looked after more.

eish.. mine grinds into second, hopefully it just needs some oil.

Hmmm....

I know the SR box's take abit to kill them, I dont see the CA's being that week unless atached to a high boost RB20DET

I also had that problem when I raced once, abadoned the run, thinking that I broke something. Guess it finally happened.

RRiekertadmin18 Apr 2009, 18:44

Nice dude!!

RReeceZ19 Apr 2009, 16:23

Gary's dad left it at East Coast Gearbox & Trans in Pinetown, so I'm gona drop it off tomorrow before I go to work. This shouldn't take them too long to put on as it's a complete unit.

RReeceZ21 Apr 2009, 18:07

Picked up the car earlier. I don't know if I can say, WOW!!! what a difference 😂 . Feels like the other g/b, except I can reverse now 😀 .

However, I'm getting this hectic shudder on the steering wheel when cornering. Can someone just confirm for me if it just needs a wheel alignment or is there something else is the problem. Didn't have this problem before this gearbox was installed.
