With all the work recently done to my car it has made it feel and drive like new, but one thing has been made apparent and that is gearbox noise. I have no problem changing gears at any RPM and the box feels great when cold too, it has had a fluid change and an additive which has helped with the noise but there is some whine coming out in 4th gear especially (at around 35-40mph). It's worth noting that the clutch, flywheel, and driveshafts are new. Buying a second hand box is out of the question as that is just chancing it, you never really know what mileage it's on and if it won't end up in the same condition as mine after 10k miles.
With that said, how much am I looking at for a refurb of the gearbox with mainly OEM components from a reputable company? As much as I'd love an LSD, carbon syncros, FD and longer 6th, they are basically as much as a decent deposit for a newish car...
I will be speaking to TGM about this later this week but first wanted to see what your views are.
