What condition are the engine/gearbox mounts in?And dop the quickshift linkages off to help with the diagnosis - quickshift linkages + knackered engine mounts = exact symptom you're describing. The variable clutch pedal doesn't fit with that though, were any bits carried over from the old gearbox whilst refitting? What gearbox oil have you used? ________________________________________ - Bespoke rollcages/additions/adjustments.

Phil: Group N gearbox mount put in by myself, make of linkages unkown as fitted by previous owner. Peugeot 75/80 oil used. And only the clutch arm and pin were used from the old box.Birk: Yes fork bearings replaced with new and greased up. Drew: Thrust bearing replaced with clutch change last time round. ________________________________________ Team Ducati 7482003 Subaru Impreza STi |

Gear box was sweet and only thing that it needed was the clutch cable arm - I'd try some std linkage and check the ball joint thingy on the sub frame ? |

Why all the aggression.. i only asked a quesiton - i need to be sure what the problem is before i start chucking even more money at the problem  And fletch how would the flywheel cause this, Ash mentioned it earlier and is a new one on my list of possible problems  Here's my pics of the clutch i fitted up against the clutch removed. Can someone check the part numbers for me (ordered from GSF):   ________________________________________ Team Ducati 7482003 Subaru Impreza STi |
