Re: [Mk2] [NA] Gear Linkage Broke Last Night!!

HG failure is much better than pistons melthing though ;) I thought he said it was converted to a rev 3 engine? therfore it has a steel HG... If this is the case the HG is unlikely to be a problem and he is much more at risk of piston/ring/turbo failure... all depends on the pressure the turbine is ...
