Hey guys, i've blown my fare share of gearboxs over the years in my cordia but this one takes the cake. Me and brodie off this site were doing a bit of a umm...rally when i gave her a bitch too much and all hell broke loose. The gearbox mount bolts snapped off, broke the gearbox in half, cracked my flywheel and clutch to bits..it all had to happen all at once? :lol:

I still got the bellhousing here as a bit of a memory..

Heres a few pics...btw, do i get a 10/10 for this effort? :mrgreen:

top job niz! yeah, there's your problem... I love spectacular gear box / clutch destruction.

good to see members who aren't precious about breaking stuff as well!!
