As mentioned....I think you can expect an explosion of said gear box any day now. The 25 isn't man enough for the 3 litre.

How come "she's" ended up like that ?

I suspect it will be fine as this is the manual box we are talking about.

the 2.5 v6 went bang last september  >:(
with what little dosh i had at the time, i had a choice, try and repair the 2.5 or put a 3ltr in there for what should have been the same money.                considering the amout off sh*t that has gone on with the engine ( money spent on it since ) and the person i bought it off  >:( >:( >:(    it was a bad choice  :( :(

oh and the 2.5 clutch had only done 1500 miles 

i may be wrong here but isn't the r25 rated at 250 nm torque max ?
i can't see a 3ltr v6 reaching that  :-/
