Hey guys,

Seeing as I am back in the shed putting in my 2nd turbo motor, thought I would show you what was left of my gearbox from the 1st attempt. Blew it up launching it, being very dumb.:bowrofl:

Note there is grooving on my bellhousing, which is caused by launching it too hard from the torque of the motor rubbing on either the clutch/flywheel/whatever. So this is something I am a bit dumbfounded on, as to how I can brace the gbox a lot better?? Ideas??

got it from RPW where the car was originally created....probably about 2 years ago.

I got some updated pics from 2nite... picked up the new engine from ADS Engine Recon in myaree, awesome ppl!

Got the stockie out, swapped 90% of the **** over, took off the gbox b4 I called it quits for the night. Got a ****ed spigget bearing so gotta get a new one tomorow.

*edit* got EFI gear if anyone needs an AFM and induction, 2 spare sets of injectors working order, spare inlet manifold...
