No problems. Weekends it sees a range of motorports with hill climbs and sprints. Weekdays it's a daily driver of about 40km round trip. I am planning on doing a range of track events in the near future including Wakefield and Bathurst plus our local SDMA hillclimb.

I bought the listed 5 speed only as donor parts: 4.44 crown and pinion and 1:1 drop gear and speedo adapter for my Ivan Albins 1-5 Helical. Following a change in manufacturer I was advised the post 2000 crown and pinions were weaker, so I bought the year I did. I am not interested in converting to a 6 speed.
