ive bought a 320bhp pulsar (off lamb) & ive been a bad boy! ive been racing all the fastest cars around the valleys, and hve not lost one race yet! :( except for tonight. i was racing a skyline gtr, and i was blowing him up to 4th gear and i put it in 5th, and then there was no drive?? once i put it in 5th there was no noice until i lifted the clutch and there was a lite grinding noise ( like it aint lining up) i put my foot back on the clutch and i could not pull it back out of 5th gear?? one i pulled over i pulled it out of 5th gear and all of the gears are fine but not 5th, and reverse is stiff.

if anyone can help me out by explaining if its f**kt o not!!

thanx chadboy

Sounds like you've stripped 5th gear :(

If you put it in 5th and let the clutch up what happens :?: The other gears could be stiff because of bits of 5th jammed in them :wink:

First thing to do is drain the gearbox oil and look for bits of metal :!:

so you can still get it in reverse? and when you engage 5th and lift the clutch up - is there any bite? or is it just nothing at all

Or bits of gear teeth :wink:

Its even worse when you find all this lot in your gearbox oil, and that was only about a 1/4 of it :shock: :lol: :lol: :lol:
