    Hey,

    Lost reverse gear out of nowhere on my SR20. Came back from a session with two drift runs and tried to reverse, the gear doesn't go in. I have all the other gears besides reverse. Any ideas? Time for a new gearbox?

    Either strip it and ask Moose nicely for a replacement part from one of his dead boxes like I am going to do, or buy a new box.

    Haha, I got another set of gearbox internals, but 5th gear feels solid. Not sure what to do :D

    strip it down before you wear the drive dogs off 5th.

    TBH mitch I need to pull my finger out and repair the one box I have that will live again, then I wont need to hoard umpteen dead boxes.
