    Agency transmissions, average rebuild cost?

    I spoke to him on the phone when my box exploded at 70mph and he thinks the most anyone should realistically spend on a JC5 130 rebuild would be £350, that of course assuming it's not absolutely f*cked and only useful as a doorstop.

    Well as Fred said, the steering racks don't really go wrong on these and he was right, DCIRaz and his mate Andy got it up on a lift, took the subframe off, unbolted the steering rack, then realised there was sod all wrong with it. However the tie rods and track rod ends that are less than a few...

    I just hope I don't end up pushing the dog kennel across the line, f*cking thing hates me at the minute.

    Well seeing as I piss all over 90 year olds in their Honda Jazz's, I should be king of the universe on the strip. :evil: Oh and LewDew sent me a pm and apparently we all need to bring the paper counterpart to our licence's, Christ knows why, but rules are rules.

    I told you the dog kennel will devastate all.......except Freds vee........and Toms turbo cup, but other than that you're all screwed........as long as I can fix the exhaust leak we discovered today. But yeah, you're all dead........maybe. :S

    Yep no shorts or t-shirts, seeing as it's as cold as winter I doubt any of us will be rocking up in beach wear.

    Don't forget, we all need helmets or they won't let us race.

    What have you done to your car today ???

    Well yesterday it had new tie rods, track rod ends, ball joints, powerflex arb bushes, 2 new front tyres, and today the gear linkage was adjusted so every gear now slots in perfect. Also has a new bracket made up for the broken ecu, it's now bolted to where it should be, I also cleaned the...

    The WTF Garage

    Not even the people who've worked hard for it? :S

    New 182 member, what mods to do? Pics included

    Decent exhaust, Eibach springs, Brembo HC discs and pads or DS2500 pads, plus braided lines, standard airbox/V6 box/K-Tec induction kit (your choice) as far as a remap goes, get an RSTuner and do it yourself, it's far cheaper and sorts out alot of the cold start issues and lumpy idle. Fastchip...

    The WTF Garage

    So he spuffed his money up the wall on bullsh*t like a 5 million dollar garage with elevator, then had to sell everything? Well done. lol

    The WTF Garage

    If you're going to spend 5 million dollars on a garage, at least fill it with American muscles cars FFS!!!

    The WTF Garage

    All that money and still no imagination or taste, he doesn't own a single decent car, and he's filled another garage with bikes he's never even ridden and half of them have never even been started. I mean what's the f*cking point?!!! :S

    Spray painting the plastics

    Most of us go for satin black as it makes the plastics look like they're brand new from the factory, but if you're after a change then gloss black.

    Can't find reverse any more.

    That's a Powerflex mount aswel and was fitted last year by Dan@519 when the box was replaced, highly doubt it's that seeing as i've had no issues until these last two weeks.

    5th Gear coming to Discovery

    Sainsbury's Super Unleaded all the way for me, cheap as chips.

    Can't find reverse any more.

    As far as I can tell the upper gearbox mount is symmetrical though?

    5th Gear coming to Discovery

    Yep music was definitely louder than the voice overs, it was really noticeable on the Panda team test.

    Can't find reverse any more.

    Haha, no you didn't snap a bolt, but you did 'support' the engine so much that the engine mount committed suicide and the whole chassis dropped down a good 6 inches. lol In fact I had to stop you getting jack happy today, as all we needed was a torque wrench. ;)

    Can't find reverse any more.

    You are f*cking heavy handed sometimes lol. I just hope it friggin' works, you take reverse for granted until you don't have it.

    5th Gear coming to Discovery

    Reminder that it's starting now on Discovery HD.

    Ok will do, i'm really not a fan of Clio's atm. :dapprove:

    Brilliant.........you're a dick. lol Ok nice one mate.

    Can't find reverse any more.

    Today I discovered that the gear stick can no longer find reverse. I've recently fitted uprated engine and gearbox mounts and it's got harder and harder to select 1st, it just wont go in at all, it usually finds 3rd instead of 1st. So the other day I discovered that if I lift the reverse nob...

    New Powerflex arb bushes spilt.

    That was my first thought tbh.

    New Powerflex arb bushes spilt.

    The tie rods are only a couple of months old as are the track rod ends, but that doesn't mean they aren't f*cked I guess. Ball joints are less than a year old aswel.

    New Powerflex arb bushes spilt.

    It's absolutely f*cked it clunks when turning both ways, I thought it was wishbone related but when we jacked it up and wiggled the wheels the amount of movement was scary. It wanders all over the road and i've got massive tyre wear on the inner and outer edge of both my front tyres, in fact...

    Clio Dimma Cosworth 4X4

    That Pug's well nice, all the owners of horrific chav wagons should be shown that picture and told, 'LOOK, that is what a body kit is meant to look like, not a f*cking snow plough like yours you c*nt'!!!!
