Hey guys mainly to Turbo or Geoff if he ever cruises here anymore.
As you know I busted my box again which is number 3. I have
come accross what I believe is a SP Astina/BG 323 box. It takes the
larger flywheel and clutch then my Astina box. My question is the
mounts. The are 3 bolts on the top which are all the same. However
on the lasers at the back the rear mount bolts to 2 bolts around the
join of the housings whereas my Astina has another triangle of 3 bolts
above the driveshafts near the bellhousing. Can you tell me which
the SP has. Tony if you could tell me what a Series 1 BA has would
be appreciated as well. I don't want to add another standard box as
that is a disaster waiting to happen. Want to try something different
to fix this problem if I can.

I will take some photos of my mounts and box for you mal tonite or tomorrow for reference... but I dont think my box is standard.. I swear its the same as other 1994-1995 astinas but I cant get any parts for it at all.. I have to go direct to the manufactuer for bearings and other parts... I will get my clutch part number for daiken.. that might give me an insight into what the F%$k my box is...

There is 2 bolts that go into the case and there is another which holds it down.
