Default What have I broken v2567

The fact Ive started a thread spouting that Ive broken the car wont surprise many

Anyhow - Id say its terminal.

Story - 10pm Sat night, 4th gear 70kmh off boost, apply slight throttle, hear a every so slight rattle. Does it in every gear... which is how my last gearbox started its death. Someone suggested worn clutch rubbing or flywheel issues..

Noise slowly worsened, got the thing home, and its definitely not a slight knock now.

Like I said, its terminal, im guessing big ends?

Motor was a second hand imported motor from a Legacy GT twin turbo. 56 000km showing on the dash, compression test was excellent ie 156-160. Run on .95 bar max, always on 98 fuel.

Had the thing 3 months and two days at time of doom, and had done about 3200km in it.

To answer a couple of questions - no oil pressure light has come on at any time, and it does work.

Let the discussion begin
