sweet ste, i cant wait to see it in the flesh!

its definitly going to be a car worthy of a trophy/feature in my eyes.

Fucking french rubbish....

Having problems Ste?

Yes...

gear selection problems.

I hate french cars.

Aside from the problems and holdups, this has come on leaps and bounds since i last checked..

Awesome work man!!!!

That is the question, will it be ready, if we can't solve it later then it's looking like a no

it's the gearbox thats the hold up.

Everything else is in hand.

If the selction problems cannot be resolved tonight. Then it's doubtful it will make it as after tonight will determine if a replacement box is needed.

solve it in so far aw what ? has the bodies and everything arrived yet ?

I have all the omex stuff at my house. ECU and fuel pressure reg are in the car.

Just the loom and TB's to fit.

But the problem I am having, that's jeopardising nationals is that I am having gear selection issues.

With the grp N linkages on the car, there is no side to side movement on the gear lever. i.e you cannot move the gearstick (when in neutral) to get to reverse or fifth. There is only forward and backwards. So I am going to the scrappy today hopefully to pick up some std linkages (mine were knackered and no longer fit)

unlucky mate u should find some. altho when we fitted widdos quickshift some of the wiring at the back of the block had to be moved has his reverse/fifth were having problems iirc

I have no wiring on the engine at the minute.

the loom is out ready to be coupled up with the omex harness.

oh i see what you mean. well hope ya sort it for nationals mate

u cant move it side to side, i dont get it,wat sort of linkages u get surely group N stuff has forward and reverse lol.
(im only trying to make u smile lol)

I gotta smile otherwise i'd cry...

it will only move the gearstick forwards and backwards.

there is no lateral movement in the middle to get from 2 to 3rd or over to reverse.

Just been to the scrappy in my dinner hour and got some std linkages.

I really hope this solves my problem. otherwise i'm screwed.
