when you learn on a manual.. you ACTUALLY lear how to drive

unlike just getting your steering lisence (read: Auto)

its scary to think how people (mainly people who have driven auto, and never manual) think its just as easy as throwing a moveable gear selector and clutch into the equation... its far more difficult then that

nce you get the hang of it its alot easy, sure .. but you then have to pracice and become good

i certainly wouldnt suggest trying to drive a manual with absolutly no experience in a controlled environament

I disagree. Sure u learn how to change gears but u should be concertrating on other things like where the traffic is and which lane ure in etc etc.

Driving is not just about making a car move around its about the people around you who are generally doing retarded things at strange times. I cant remeber how many times ive seen p plater that have no idea whats going on in the lane next to them unitl they decide to change lanes in a less than delicate swerving manouver. Man i hate p platers. Then again the majority of ppl in perth cant drive anyway.

Auto lic for 6months to a year sounds good to me. learn to walk before you run.

    • Johnny is sad now... Because you didn't get Bosch Motorsport ABS.  
    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo
