To replace 5th gear you're looking at about £200
so folks could be a really good bargain it its just one gear. |
I'm interested, but am just wondering if there's any other weak points to the running gear etc due to the power? Forgive me, don't know too much about Scoobs (except that they're awesome :D )

the previous owner is subscribed to the thread so ill ask him |
Is there not a possibility there is more damage than just a broken 5th gear cog? surely people can only speculate the damage until the box is opened and inspected.

It's a bloody bargain imho esp considering what's been spent to get it to almost 450hp - look at the parts & add up the cost. if I had £5k I'd buy it back. TX. |

My old car - it's a PPG straight cut gearbox (google it for more info) like the scoob rally cars of old so is very strong, people running big power either go 6 speed or this. Advantage of the PPG is that it's a lot lighter than the 6 speed. The straight cut gears 1 through 4 should be very strong, 5th was left standard to give a higher top end & indeed this is what most people do with it. As Banny says above a simple repair should only be a few hundred £'s ...

Banny, who would you suggest for the 5th gear repair, and what power is the PPG is question rated to? Ive heard to many folk reverting back to 6 Speed having owned PPG due to failures beyond 450-500bhp (the rated power output of these)
Rob ps Im asking as im interested in the car dooda ;) |
i really dont like threads like this. such good and well spec cars going for silly low money! like others have said above, it i had the money i would snap his arm off.
i know form first hand experience how much £££ it takes to get a classic into these numbers! |
what a bargin,glwts:)

Sorted! Cheers Pete was great to chat. See you later this week ;)

I've had to pull out of this, due to being an idiot and jumping in before I knew what numbers could be involved with a box rebuild.
Pete has been a spot-on guy and very upfront, so sorry to be a pain in the ass. |
