Did you drive through your garage door or you having gearbox problems? lol

SH*t mate that doesnt sound very good! Hope all it was just you running over something not very important!

gearbox problems.... ah well... i'm trying not to be pissed off - eventhough i know i am! :(

Theres loads being broken all the time mate hopefully you can get a good price on one!

I share your sympathy fella, at least i've still got 1 and 2 sounds like yours completely *****xed

Mine will be available at some point, if either of you are after auto boxes that is... Whole lot is coming of, since im converting to a manual. My box has done about 15k since it was fitted by the previous owner... I have a receipt for it. Im sure the car had done 48k when the box went in and its on 62k ish now.

Pulls well in all gears, selects O/D with no issue and is very quick to kick down...

 

BUT it depends on my own funding and time as to when it comes out of my car so if your interested you may have to bear with me!

Oooh!!.. I never thought I would see a product that actually made me think about converting from manual to auto :eek:

Good find Buddy.. And one to seriously consider for any auto zed owner, I would have thought!!

i gave it some serious consideration, its quite expensive though and you still suffer from the lack of power of the line...

 

Also i couldnt find much information about it, so i didnt really want to trial this stuff in the UK so i decided not to... It would appear to put massive strain in the autobox as well, aftermarket oil coolers even more of a must!

Fitted it a few years ago to an old members car - TT Tim. He was VERY impressed with it tbh....

i think its awesome - and if its been fitted, tried and tested then would defo b worth a go ?? lol.

Well Tim's car is still running 100% so obviously not too bad for the 'box :)

Should have asked you the shouldnt I lol... Just out of interest what would you charge for doing a manual conversion on a car (parts all supplied)

 

And also what would you charge for fitting this ESS paddle shift thing?
