If he does I've never ever seen it...

LoL, with the return trip to Sydney, a tour of the factory, and the weekend in a 5star hotel, I might think about it. BTW, you just knocked my grill with my lights, not doing ya self any favours! hehehe

Some of the more exxy diffs are adjustable, or so I've read on here. Id like to find out too, same problem as you, just mines more so scared of getting done for a "locker". I also dont know how they are adjustable, I guess you would have to be stuffing about a bit and pulling the diff apart to a certin degree.

It would be a two way. A full locker you would know about, if the car doesnt have power on tight turns it pretty much wont move, with the two way it releases and allowes the car to roll more. BTW trust me, I can push my car, but I cant push my mates welded diff car if we want to turn it. Get 4 guys behind it however we can kinda move it.

Ok, just a quick warning, atm theres a pulsar where my car should be, as mines getting the gearbox recoed...

Just the update. It was the selector fork, it had partly broken/bent, hence I could get it in to 5th the night before, and not the next day, probably heat being the factor there. (no gearbox fairys) Im going to get all the seals and bearings replaced also (with stronger items) as its $300 cheaper to do it while the box is out and half apart than do it in 6months time. Also a big thanks to the gearbox shop (free plug!!!) Springwood Gearbox Repairs in Brisbane. The guys were really helpful, quick to get back to me, had all the info and prices ready before they called, basically did what I asked, and more. And answered my stupid questions without treating me like a tool. They also seemed well priced.

Quick up date. It is the selector fork. Whats happened is its partly broken/bent, hence it would go in to gear the night before, and not in the morning, posibly due to heat in the gearbox, etc making it easier or harder to go in to gear. So thats a big NO to gearbox fairys. Anyway, while the gearbox is out its going to get a reco, all bearings and seals done, as its saving me $300 by doing it now instead of later. Now a big plug for the gearbox shop! Im in QLD, and I went to Springwood Gearbox repairs. The guys were unbeliveably helpful, friendly, happy answer my stupid questions (I actually mentioned gearbox fairys to them) fair priced, and actually are doing what I asked, fully recomend them. (atm anyway, I havent got my car back yet, but they said tomorow no worries)

Yours looks like the chrome one but painted. And mines the same as Inarks. So if it goes missing...

I want it sooo bad! But there is apparently one or two cant remember already up here in Sunny (its raining today) Queensland. Something to aim for I guess.

Not trying to be mean, but imagion what they would have done had you been on a bike. (other than the obvious you can get a way from them REALLLLLY easy on a decent bike...)

They are good for cheap theme park tickets too! And 10% off cold rock! I love my cold rock, its paid for its self in that alone.

WTF is the car!!!??? And well, fair enough, if the place that made the car cant work out the prob, why should a mobile battery service/ break in to car place be able to work it out.

Yep, Id agree with that after talking to a few very helpful but rather booked up gearbox shops today. That or the gear has posibly come loose.

2 way mechanical LSD at a guess.

PS, I got this week off toooo!!!

I had like a week off sick (actually sick) and they didnt want anything. Infact they said DO NOT COME IN!!! Because they didnt want to get sick! Bloody tops I thought!

Quick thought tho... How would it have stuffed up while it was sitting in the garage last nite not going anywhere?

Thank-you. Very helpful. Looks like time to go to a gearbox shop.

Ok. It would be a selector going by that. Is it an easy fix? Or would I need to go pay someone to do it? (easy fix being not removing the box, the center console etc I could handle)

Ok! Went for a drive last nite, everything huckydory. No probs. Missed 3rd, kinda hit the selector wall thingy, big loud crunch noise. Then put it in 5th, kept driving, all gears work. Then come this morning, go for a drive, no problems. Go to get on the highway, go to put it in to 5th, wont go in, (wont go in being it will go in its little slot all the way, but wont actually engage the gear properly) it then crunches as if the gears are JUST touching, going by the noise and the feel thru the gear stick. But all other gears are fine, no different. The engine is an RB20DET, and the RB20 box. Car is a cefiro but I dont see how that would matter. Any help would be REALLLLLY nice, cause I have NO idea, other than maybe not enough gearbox oil, or maybe the selector.

Its a smaller engine, with a turbo, so as per most of the time, less low down. Just rev it more. Use the gears etc.

LoL must have let the standards slide and let few fat ones 'slip' by Cause its broke again now!

Yeah, we park down the back bit, pool end, about the 3rd row. If you drive past slow, look real suss, and yell out both our names a few times, we will eventually realise that its someone who wants to talk to us. Thats only if we are there... other wise your gona look pretty silly

Lets just save money. I'll keep mine slow, so you will always know you can beat another cefiro. And we'll get everyone together, and form like a roster of whos car to go out and about in every week aye? saves you dolling yours up aye Mark! And saves me spending $15k+ to catch up!

Im bumming, Mark is the one posing, doing it all for the llladiessss, or so he tells me
