Gearbox Issues

[CeJay]

Just appear to have lost reverse in my car, does anyone know of a good reliable shop to take it to? The gbox has an aftermarket gearset in it, so would want to take it somewhere that knows there way around them. Alternatively if anyone has any advice etc on what it might be that'd be good to. Car just doesn't select reverse anymore. Every other gear is fine, 5th does crunch on quick changes but that's about it.

I have had this problem before...

There is a spring and plate in the gearbox which stops you selecting/going 5th to Reverse and what has probably happened is: this spring has broke and the plate has dropped into place and your are unable to select Reverse.

So get a new spring and replace it your self or to a workshop

The gearbox can be a bit of shite to get out (on a GTR anyway).

I had ed at intraga automotive replace it while getting a service

Thx for the info, sounds almost exactly like my problem, ie feels like reverse isn't even there, ie like a 5th to reverse lock out. Will way up my options.
