Default Blown Gearbox - Fixed.

hey fella's i was driving to work today, lately i have been driving off boost to save fuel, but i came out of a turn off and into a 90zone where i put my foot down in second and got to about 5000rpm and it just went bang, and then a horrible noise like parts rolling around in a metal casing or something...

I limped home in first, then 3rd.

I can put the clutch in while rolling and the noise doesnt go away, i can still access 2nd gear at stand still. all gears are very stiff and rough feeling.

Any chance its a cv joint or ould it be the transmission? i dont kno if ive given enough info but fark me that put a dampener on my day..

I have 2 cars, a brumby and a WRX.. the brumby's down with a fucked ultinator, and now the rex is down with a fucked who knows what..possible VERY expensive..

i had to call in sick for work as i cant get in there!!

Ash

Edit: The gearbox is now replaced, thanks to Dtrally/Doug. He is a great bloke who knows his stuff and really pulled a big favour for me.

Thanks, ash.
