Yes ya did, been meaning to post in this thread all day but forgot. Saw ya get a lil tail happy lol.

Not as much as I would have liked :P. Aye you guys got any spare S14 5 speed input shafts lying around?

Will have a look tomorrow mate. Do you just need it to put in a clutch or do u need one in good condition?

Anything would be better than what we currently have. :glare:

Back story is we somehow have a 5 speed here for a customer but it was purchased without inspecting and when we checked it out when it got to the shop it seriously looks like someone has hacked at the input shaft with a die grinder. So to keep the costs down for the customer If i can just whack an input shaft in this box and use it all will be good.

Poor guy has been f**ked around with a ''built'' engine that is f**ked and thousands wasted and now having a $6-$700 gearbox that is useless just doesn't make it any better.

Spotted a Silver R33 2 door yesterday and the day before on Camberwell Rd just up from the junction around 1pm.

Looked like it had 2 tone paint job, gunmetal grey around the bottom 1/4 of the panels.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
