Im pretty sure your diff has blown.Happened me last week in my bmer.
Spin the prip and see if the rear driveshafts turn, or drain the oil and see if any metal comes out.

right so iv just been out investigating a bit more and what gem-s13 suggested was right. when i give it a bit more revs and try to see if i can get 2nd to grind(purely to see if its still there). it will grind so 2nd gear is still intact after all:D. got a look under the car and the prop shaft isn't moving so im guessing what danmoorhead said that the output shaft has broken/snapped.:eek:
next question is, is this a part/shaft that can be just replaced or whats the story there? like is there loads of stuff attached or just pop it out and pop in another one???

gearbox out and rebuild it i have an output shaft here if you wanted to rebuild your box on to it, but it would work out dear to get someone to do it for you it will prob be cheaper just to buy another box and fire it in, give frankae86 a pm he had a very good sr box for small money,

ill give you 100 for your box

this proves yet again that gem is a genius i think! haha

jamie180sx has a few broken boxes if ur lookin 4 a shaft all with gears gone but tat shaft wold be ok

man have good boxs up here and damaged ones with the bits you need,,

I'v a few output shafts here too shane if ya want to rebuild it!
