Nice car well done.

Run it in hard mate. It wont hurt it

Mechanical sympathy mate.

A little bit of gentle acceleration to bed the rings into the bores (until it's got around 2000 km's on the clock) is my plan.

I'm just a tad disappointed not to have bought a NITRO XR6T. I could have had one, but it was located in FNQ . . . where the floods are. I guess that's better than a SILHOUETE XR6T from Kinglake? Poor souls in FNQ and parts of Vic have copped a caning of late.

Yes mate,

The clunking is normal, mine does it also. But your habits will change and it will minimize once your used to it. You will not notice after a while anyways. A great gearbox though, you shouldn't have any issues with the it at all. What I love about the manual is when your giving the car hell the whole gear box just comes together and feels tighter and runs very smoothly. But putting around will result in clunks. However, I would prefer to have clunks when putting around than a sh*t smoother gearbox.
