no shit mate!!
lasted me a good two months with some hard abuse, the box came from a 2.0 thottel body'd corsa so has been given some shit through its time, lasted well imo.
saving for the lads holiday in september so sadly cant spend any money on the car at the mo have other things in my life than my car to waste my money on,
F20 box is the way foward for me for now, does the job untill i get past the holiday stuff and sort out some decent drive train set up,
just going to take it easy with it, suprised this box has lasted so long with the way i treated it,

the whole interior is stripped out dude, i need to remove the sunroof as the cage is propper tight and pushing it out, so it needs to come out,
just test fitting it at the moment,
i tried moddifiying the sunroof but still had no joy,
ive emailed performance trim about a sunroof panel but havnt herd anything back yet.
also i cant get the door bars on as the seats are too wide?
