Managed to get a loud bang, followed by unhappy noises as I coasted to a stop the other day. My Audi 016 in my DRB GT40 is now not happy, and neither am I! Will pull the trans on the weekend and have a look, but I'm not optimistic about what I'll find. It was toughened up with a case stiffening plate, plus a Quaife ATB diff centre, so I was hoping for a little more life than under 1900 km.
Mind you, I'd just had the engine finally sorted with a lot of time on the dyno, but still not happy about it breaking the first time I gave it full throttle in 2nd gear. Motor made 386 RWHP on a hot day, so I suppose it's a bit much for trans considering the car is mostly for track use, not that it's seen much while I iron out problem after problem.
Anyways, see my post in the parts wanted section if you can help with a G50 trans!
Cheers,
Julian
