What was the number in kronor before taxes etc?

I would suggest yu ring them, if you go to http://www.tractive.se/?id=04 and look for their motorsport link you will find Carl Nelson (who is English) will advise on current prices. he was extremely helpful, and i would think a second transmission would be cheaper, thanks to me paying for the CAD drawings and sending them sample bellhousings et cetera. Remember me at Christmas.... :P

That's a fcuk up service. Make my blood boil to see another person getting jig by those mobs Dave.

There is no doubt that they provide some great products for this sport but the way they do business is just ridiculously stupid.

They charge premium dollar for the one who can pay, sponsor people who can lie for their products and fcuk u around when there is a problem.

The good new is that, it sounds like your shifter rails are bent Dave. The installers of the gearbox should have checked that. Willall racing used to be able to get billet/stronger rails made up. I am not sure if they still can do that but might be worthwhile to give them a call.

How is your R32 going Dave? Will be good to see you at the timeattck meet again.

now you know why i only use Terry at Award Diff and Gearbox for all my gearbox work.

Ive had two OS giken boxes and two Pfitzner dogboxes built by Terry and never has an issue whatsoever.

Simon at PPG is a bit of an arrogant bastard too so that doesnt help.

Due to a legal request from PPG's solicitor, this thread has had to be edited.

Please don't blame me or SAU, but blame the people who cannot argue for themselves when a question of their quality or workmanship is brought up.

      A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.

      Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.

      Maybe you should do some more reading.  Google positive effects of ADHD and you'll get your answers.  One of my personal downsides of ADHD has been talking before I think.   Maybe you have it too?

      Excuse me for butting in....but which part of ADHD can be considered a superpower? I would have though it far more likely that some ASD comorbidity is more likely to be contributing to an ability to hyperfocus on something. ADHD being aimed somewhat in the other direction. My shed looks like your shed. My whiteboard list of unfinished projects has entries going back 15 years. I know what you're talking about - I just struggle to connect ADHD to the results being discussed.

      Thanks for reaching out!  It's a blessing and a curse at the same time.  I'm undiagnosed but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see it in me... I have more half started projects laying around my house, shed, garden, etc taking up space and money, destroying aesthetics than if I added up all of my mates projects together. But, ADHD gives me the ability to hyper focus on things that no mere mortal could even  comprehend.  A recent pool build is an example of that....  I dont know anyone else that would be dumb enough and focused enough to take on then complete something of that magnitude. I call ADHD a superpower but it can equally be completely destructive if not controlled and focusedon the right places. Addiction is a major concern to ADHD people and thankfully my addictions have been no worse than projects, XBOX, chocolate and being an arsehole! It's often hereditary and my 13 year old son is currently learning how to drive it at the moment. Keep lurking! If i can finally finish this bloody thing at some point it will be a win for all of us ADHD'ers! 🤪
