Hi all I have stripped 3 rd gear well it does not exist anymore I drove the car home in all other gears obviously it was noisey but it still drove ok

Would it be cheaper to get a second hand gearbox or get a new 3rd gear installed

Had the same problem mate :( 2nd hand gearbox is cheaper but Gears on liverpool with do a trade in for your old box for a refurbished one. 

Cool whats there full website called

Best off ringing them mate might have to take a few attempts but I was going to do with mine wanted £650 but spoke with Martin and he got me one that he know's the Subaru it's from and assured me it was mint for £150 so was hard to turn that down :) 

Check imparts46 seller on ebay. Hes got a sh#t ton of genuine subaru parts. Might be able to get a new gearbox for steal. Worth n ask neway bud

Cheers guys , I've just e mailed them :-)

Just been naughty and bought a lightweight flywheel and exedy clutch ;-)

New gearbox arrived today along with uprated clutch and light weight flywheel :-)

Should be back in action by end of wknd

I got the 4aa box as it's supposed to have the slightly thicker gear sett

Got mine back on the road today :D 

Coolbeans

Yeah happy to have it back took longer than I'd have liked but got there in the end. But I guess I was still in the blobeye so the time was well spent lol 

It has been a long old week , gearbox went last Sunday and she was fixed last night by 11 , and 1000 squid later , few I'm tired some late nights on the drive ,I'm gonna congratulate myself for being a drive way hero lol , forgot what it was like to do some proper work on a car lol , well 50 miles in and she is driving so nice and smooth , the light weight flywheel really helps make everything so much smoother , she revs and seems to pic up speed a lot quicker with a lot less throttle , so I'm back in action :-) , but taking it easy lol

But I would also like to thank the subaru gods for making it as easy as could be m:-)
