i need a recon gearbox :( i've looked on ebay but i don't want to pay 300-600 on a box that ends up being a paper weight. it's not like there are proper review to say yes there are good i've done x amount of miles etc...
its a bearing thats gone i'd say

Source a 6 speed from an S then, will suit your engine better

i did think about the 6 speed box but its a bout £1300 to get it done because you need all the other brackets and drive shafts and stuff
