possibly looking at an engine conversion, which may include the box, if it's up to the job... Thanks

the only thing that destroys the tranny is shiftlock movment that engages drift.... don`t do that,myne broke after 45000km(don`t now how much miles that is..) since then I have been using a 320 box,that has a slightly longer gear ratio,but it works fine 8)
