Thanks Jimi our identity has now been revealed :harhar: and yes it was a great morning :yes: especially having a good look at PEACHES in the metal as it is way better than the photos (great job :2thumbs: ). Thomas little rolla made the trip down and back with only one little hiccup we decided to have a look at the Gasoline Muscle car show and it ran up a bit hot in traffic :hmm:so we parked it for a while walked to the show (bloody great show) got back to his car and didn't miss a beat all the way home :hail: and the economy was even better than last trip :) .

Trip down to Melbourne and back Saturday :rolla: , Pulled cover plates of Sunday morning cleaned inside and out fitted back in car :) , then had to drive it down to Bendigo and drop of for Thomas not a bad way to spend the weekend :hmm:not like i had anything better to do for the weekend but as i said it was a 30+ year old gear box that was built to handle say 60+ rwhp :n: and is now having 110 rwhp :y: going through it so i suppose something has to give :oops: but anyway just wanted to say another BIG thank you to STU (thanks mate) and all is good again :2thumbs: .

August 6, 201313 yr comment_664098 Can't believe you drove that far for a gearbox! Hahah very motivated! Haha good to hear she is back in one piece mate! Report
August 8, 201313 yr Author comment_664185 Hi there Leighroy ! i don't know about being motivated or just plain crazy 8/ but sometimes you just do what you have to do :yes: . It now looks like we may have to find something a bit better in the clutch department as it is now slipping under load :down: we are already running the Exceedy sprorts tuff clutch which i thought would have been sufficient (Anyone have any suggestions ?) :hmm: . How did you get on with the brackets for your rear brakes? i hope they work out for you :2thumbs: . Cheers:- Stuart (Thomas dad) :wave: . Report
August 8, 201313 yr comment_664191 Exedy also do a button clutch. That's what I have behind mine and has held over 120-130kw Report
