Hi Guys,

As you all know, my Torque Converter packed in a couple of weeks back, and have a new TC (not uprated- couldn't be tits waiting on it) but wish I had now which I am very much regretting, as the garage that was supposed to be doing the Job have got exceptionally busy and cannot book her in for this for at least 3-4 weeks- Nightmare R us...... and up here on the Scottish Riviera not a lot of people want to tackle it. My question is who would be the best to get this carried out, and what sort of cost, and time scale is involved.

Thanks in advance peeps

Didn't someone have a spare ACE TC going? Rings a vague bell, but might be imagining it.

I'd get my TC done by 517 trans, personally. It's a faff to sort temporary export paperwork, though.

Ive gone to see mackie transmissions in Tollcross about my differential and they looked pretty good. Didn't need anything done and only took gears with me so can't comment on thier work but they do seem to have a good name and are ZF repair Shop

Shop your spot on again bud! there was someone flogging an Ace one, ach well done now.

Star- making in roads into Mackies and yes the definitely know their stuff,

Spoke to Grizz earlier, and he's coming back to me with a rebuild tranny, TC, New Lambda's, Heads Skimmed, and all gaskets/seals replaced, installing new oil cooler so we got up to £5k plus odds and sods.....bah. Well at least Grizz promises that my car will come out like New :kissmyrings, with a stage one remap included. Excited much.......but feck me Big Bill...

If you get the chance to get an ACE verter then do it. Think it was Keaney who was selling the ace one on here.
