KiNK43 Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 Sounds like its properly chewing itself up then ! You know, maybe you should get one rebuilt with M-factory internals and get it over n done with If the car feels good with a s**gged box, just imagine how much better it'll be with a good one!Cheers mate .. Enjoy your bath !! Just can't afford the outlay nowadays. I don't work so much so i can enjoy more time with the kids. When i started with the car I was doing silly hours so was a bit more flush I suppose. Anyway...@GrantCaps are 75mm at top, 70mm that goes in, 72mm at the tabs that hold them in if that makes sense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dogg1210 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Yeah to be honest man I reckon I would be better off just pulling off fast as if I wanted to get out of a junction fast. Yeah maybe like 2-2.5k. Will try next time. Great fun though. Really enjoyed it..lol when I took mine up to crail I done 1st launch at 6k and just sat there spinning 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KiNK43 Posted July 16, 2014 Author Share Posted July 16, 2014 Jobs a gooden ya dingle berries!Well so far so good didn't thrash it but it selects all gears with minimal fuss or funny noises. Woop woop!! Please let me advise people gearbox swap on your own on axle stands is hard work. Insanely difficult trying to lift new box in. I'm in pain. Whilst it was on stands fitted the nissin super street pads too. Again not had a chance to really try them but should be better than smelly mintex. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
