well car ain't moving... and it's giving a loud whining noise under carriage...
im shuddering at the cost involved already.

Hmm maybe a manual conversion......

yikes, hope its something simple and can be fixed easily

ughhh me 2...
but i remember mat saying the 4speed can handle roughly 250hp.... so it's either tune down the car and fix the auto or get a 6sp...but i haven't driven a manual for 5-6years... maybe need to start practicing again

but then have to get ecu for gearbox and engine which would be different to 1gfe... i think i might just beef up the auto box coz manual conversion too expensive...and too hard to find.

:oops: I hope you manage to sort it, without costing too much..

Oh man not good!! Hope that it's not gonna cost you too much to sort out!

Manual conversion would be good but I hate to think of the costs involved!!

Good luck!! Let us know the outcome!

What I really love about this forum is the people genuinely give a sh :tsktsk: t about eachother. Its great when we all rally round to help a brother out.

I hope all goes well with your box mate. I had a selector switch go on mine and it cost a monkey to get it sorted at the dealer with discount.
