As above, i have a zx volcane td box here( 306 hdi basically) and the choice of a 306 dturbo box, il also have the choice of a 6 speed box.

engine will be a gt2871rs, 300-350bhp and rev to 7600 if this matters?

Pug1off told me id need a £3200 quiffe box Ninja id rather try something cheaper though

Many thanks!

because i Dont waste money, the 6 box may take 300ftlbs it may not, there might be a cheaper option out there.

Dont really want to spend £1300 on a box just after spending £5k on mapping, ecu and a xu10, Plus since i said i was 19 there the posts come about the insurance, theres THOUSANDS of lads who vary from 17 to 25 who dont declare mods. Killjoys are Fail

So you won't be declaring your mods?

You fucking prick!

I declared my mods and my SC is fully declared. If you can't afford to mod the car then don't full stop.

To be fair this sounds like the last turbo conversion that never happened so it shouldn't be an issue.

I'm sure he knows that not having insurance (exactly the same as not declaring your modifications) is an offence that can land him in prison/with a crimal record. Only a retard would take that chance.... Thumbs up

Of course, lovely bit of debt he only has to repay after earning over a certain threshold at a pretty much insignificant repayment rate.

Makes a lot of sense to me...

The ML box fit's and is allot stronger than the BE box, But it's twice as heavy, Needs a cable conversion unless you can fit a master cylinder on the clutch pedal and custom shafts as the inner splines are different, Also is using the 2.0 turbo version then I would add another 2 planet gears like the V6 or a ATB diff dare I say it

as above hes had this on the other threads, and as he said hundres of people do it undeclared, but the reason they do it un declared is because the more people that do it the higher the premiums will be for everyone making it less affordable for other so more people dont declare, its a vicious circle fuelled by c*nts that cant afford to pay, dont do it if you cant afford to.

ML5 is 10kg heavier than a BE3/6 box.
You'll need different shafts with a 406/xantia 2L turbo rear engine mount and the speedo will be out with the different tyre size. Also cable shift system will bolt in but you'll lose heat shields and have to cut the exhaust tunnel. You'll also have to figure out how to make the clutch arm move as those boxes usually use hydraulics.

Its a bit of a twat basically but can be done. I had one on my V6 engine in my rallye.

not that much work tbh, been done before so everythign that needs to be done has been covered before, worth it for knowing it'll take some beating and wont cost you too much.

as Miles said, there is a Quaife diff available off the shelf, doubt it'd take much for someone else to make up a plate diff to fit.

The problem you'll have is the casings cracking, hence why I sold all my turbo bits a few years back...
