Default Re: Please Helppppp Gearbox

the DOHC turbo boxes are getting really hard to find (even harder in good cond)

Depends on how badly blown the box is might be more worthwhile to be rebuilt.

if the casing has blow right out, its a throw away job. if the gearset is buggered you can look into the 626 getsets (from the same years) to fit in.

keep looking around, if you find one, take it down a geabox builder and get it reco'd before fitting, too many of them are buggered to put in straight away, unless they can prove to you the box is good.
