Always does, theres almost double the power going through the sme parts.Originally Posted by Turbo_Steve
Was the manual box uprated? Be interesteing to know which part failed though, and if its possible to upgrade that part easily enough.

it is an evo box so the upgrade is a lot easier

is the EVO box itself an uprade over the manual legnum box? The ratios are differnt im guessing but are the parts actually stronger?
No the VR4 box is an EVO box with different ratio's so it is not an upgrade , but he will be able to use uprated bits , infact one option he can do is lower the final drive
Not heard back from Kev since I texted him back this morning.
I know he fitted a new clutch about 2 weeks ago, and had commented it was already slipping.....but his text said the gearbox had gone, not the clutch.
hi all it was me ,clutch started slipping bad and then lost all drive and pedel fell to floor,clutch release bearing fallen off clutch as it is a pull clutch,got gearbox oil driping out of bell housing will strip this week just pissed off with car.
had a 5 hour tow to plymouth sat night will try again.
thanks to members for stopping was a good day shame it ended like it did.
all the best
kev
Thank god it was nothing too serious mate, and you got back ok. A bet the ladies where a tad p1ssed off too.
Faulty clutch then, can you claim under warranty ?
What a sh1tter ... bad luck Kev and after replacing the diff the day before to get to Japfest too!

Gutted for you mate - just when it looked like it was all coming together. Be patient - you'll get there
Sounds like it wasn't installed properly?
Bloody shame about the car. It seems that its just not meant to be.
the car will be ok just when you take a car up on power all sorts of things are sent to try us,no one on hear knows what power the gearbox,diff and transfer can take.

It is easy to say things wont come togather but no one else has tried what i have tried so when you try and run the power i run then you can comment
Kev...I don't think anyone meant their comments to be personal Hun. I am sure I can speak for the whole club when i say that we all want you to succeed with this and that we are gutted for you that you seem to have experienced difficulties.
Hope you get your gearbox sorted without too much delay and all the best for your plans with it.
Yep what Lilly said. We're all behind you mate. You'll get there in the end. I would have given up looong ago. I get pi$$ed off when a light bulb goes
Kev...apologies if I came across as derogatory, it was meant to be compainonable! I've been down the "ridiculous power" route on other cars, and it's expensive and very very trying on the patience. Hence me not doing it this time! LOL However, as I said, you WILL get there with enough determination, and you're breaking ground (as well as components) so we're all behind you. If nothing else, it's good to know what breaks when. From your point of view, it's good to know you're building a MONSTER!
I cannot see where there was any particularly painful remarks made?
Perhaps it was mine?
People are showing an interest, compassion and adding a comment or two. I'm sure many on the forum know what you do for a living and what you are trying to achieve with the car plus have some idea of how hard you've worked on it.
But this is a forum where people are allowed to voice an opinion. Saying that people are not allowed to comment because they haven't done what you have is a little extreme! It's like me saying that people who cannot spell "powerful" shouldn't type anything either.
I understand you must be really gutted about the car and have full respect for your tenacity to achieve your dream but I do think your last comment was a little tetchy.
Here's hoping you reach your nirvana soon.
Well at least you know it's got Good suspension, Power Steering Pump and Rocker cover !!
Oh and by the way you have PM's ?
