    Reverse Gear

    Well no shit, It's THAT hard that I could swear somebody has welded a forcefield around my reverse, It can go in, but its gear stick snapping stuff I tell you so I'm not all that keen on doing it. Any other ideas???

    Reverse Gear

    Cause it's not just "not going into gear", it physically isn't able to be moved into the position. Grrr need it to stop raining so I can have a look, so puzzling dammit.

    Reverse Gear

    I have a mint g/box, semi worn clutch, awesome engine. Yesterday: Car works 100% fine. Today: it's like reverse is seized, no amount of clutch or revs would get it into gear, in then end I used brute strenght and it went into place and then worked fine, no funny noises or what have you. Then I'm done with my reversing and go to select first but I'll be dammed it doesn't want to come out of reverse, so I force it out and away I go, all the other gears are fine and can be selected normally, there were no weird noises or anything leading up to this, just literally happened overnight. Could my gearbox have fucked itself overnight? or is it likely to be something like a worn clutch? It's raining so I can't go have a fiddle at this point in time.

    I got monroes... cause the front had them already and some second hand rears appeared on trademe at the right time in my life
  14. If the car was originally an auto, it will fit as the autos have a bigger trans tunnel, if it was a manual, then you will need to cut the trans tunnel a bit bigger, look around in past threads, this has been covered about a 100 times now
  15. You really think they would check engine codes and such???
  16. Pictures or it didnt happen
  17. Just get them to join up to oldschool, and when there is enough demand, ask admin if they can spilt the forum into toyota/mitsi/escort etc
  18. I'm usuing standard repco one still, but I have my "custom" way of mounting it so next time round I can stick any brand of filter in there without too much trouble
