Just wondering if a bearing is gone in your gear box or something similar is it possible to lose power to your rear wheels??? Also what do people think of upgradding coils and leads is it worth it??

Thanks 4 ya help.

bearing, no. coils & leads, if u r breathing more air , yes if its stock , not a lot of point

If a bearing is gone in your gearbox generally most if not all of them would be worn... it would be really farking noisy.

So long as your car gets good spark from the existing ones your should be right for the minimal power gain you may achieve

Na its not stock in the engine im just trying to find and excuse for a lot of power loss. Gearbox grinds in forth bad.

that is probably more likely to be 4th gear syncro rather than a bearing.

Yea i wasnt to sure it has been doing it for a long time so it doesnt bother me i just double clutch to save it.

yeh i'd say its your syncro mesh in 4th... Id say it would be more of an internal problem if your loosing power though...

^id say your pullin stuff outa your ass

internals are perfect had that all cheaked out when we had the head off. So im lost i give up.

Stuffed if i know then

timing ?

shouldnt be timming i had it on the dyno and they stuffed with that and recon i couldnt pull more then 113rwhp outa it....... i have also rejetted the carbs i think it will nevr be found

might be a crazy idea.... but have you checked all the really basic stuff... like how clean is your air filter?

as well as plugs? are they they right plugs?

Yea cheaked all that they were new filters when dynoed and plugs have been replased twice now. Is there any good performance plugs that make a difference i have heard of titanium ones and stuff.

platinum and iridium tiped plugs but they don't make a big difference if you are after that...

Na it was ment to be decked that much when they did it all, i dont think it was ment for everyday use but its all good now with the head gasket I used to run it without a 2mm but i blew it beetween 4 and 3 about the size of my pinky
