this is the way it is meant to be

 

they have a reverse lockout solenoid on them, that only activates from 0-10 kmph. this makes it easy to get into reverse whist stationary and makes it near impossible to get it into reverse of you are traveling over the set speed where it de-activates the solenoid

It is to stop people going into reverse by accident because 5th and reverse are quite close together 

Sweet man. Buddy with a Ls1 in a 46 told me the same. My eager-to-test-drive brain never register that on sat morning🤯🤪

I have a bunch (maybe 6) of beaten up coupe front doorcards you can have for free if you need anything off them.

What size and brand tyres are you running on the rear?  You might have to widebody to get a big enough tyre under the guard to get you better traction

I drove it like an animal to spin brru. 

I do have some baby 215s old Pirellis on the Rk003s 18×8.5 8.5 kgs rims at rear. Going to opt for 255 40, something cheaper cos smoking& raw instant power was part of the essence of the build. Would like to go 17×10/11 after cam with no alterations of the guard. Like the stock look. 1 major stuff up was hitting that guard🙄i could of made it fit but I was rushing. I hate it!! And will fix it soon. I wont alter the stock look unless i really have to homs.  I will take you for a spin soon. Shes Insane brru....as the last guy i took for a drive  said more than 8- 10 times. 😂
