Was an attempt at humour dude, and not really wanting the thread moved into the 200sx related section Change title if you really want.

Gearbox will only work in 1st at the moment. 7 miles in 1st gear is not gonna be fun tonight.

Found out last night after we had it checked out... geabox is screwed in forward gears. New part is not cheap or easy to fit, so gonna get scrap value for car, which is under £100

Only if you want to P/X for my car plus split rims + shiny rad bits

Unfortunately not, I was due to buy another S13 and sell mine, but think that will have to not go through now due to lack of funds because of this

I drove Melissa round for work on Monday (Mobile care work), and today my Dad has kindly voluteered so he his driving her around today whilst I'm at work. Means she is only giving up her last day in her current job and we'll just have the one car to drive to work. Shame it's not an eco one like the clio.
