Cheers mate, yeah really handy mates to have, got my box out today! Finally had a gap in the workshop and a guy off so a spare ramp can't be missed!
Also turbo still looking new

Nice mate! Good to see some more progress... I think there is only a couple people on this forum actually posting anything interesting, not sure why I'm bothering anymore no one seems interested unless they are talking about exterior mods, tyres or polish these days!
New cogs!!
Had to buy a new shifter fork as the original was missing a plastic cap..
New shifter bushes going in and seal to stop potential leaks...
Old ones...
New seal....
Reassemble time..
It's complete now so next need to find some time and drash un eeeen!!
New parts came today, 3rd gear, 3rd gear syncro ring and reverse hub... Doesn't dhow how fucked the old parts were on the pics but they are screwed!!
Got it all fitted between jobs..
Diff is in, had a bit of a clearance issue in the hex bolts on the LSD so had to shave the edges off, but nothing serious..
LSD is now fitted into casing and preload all set up with genuine Renault washers which vary in increments of 0.05 but feels spot on... This job is taking a while due...
Progress..
Have replaced a worn 2nd gear syncro thanks again to @NorthloopCup for the part as they are like rocking horse shite to get hold of!!

Ah cool, I only asked as I fitted a power flex insert on the top mount and it vibrates more on idle and slightly more cabin noise while driving... Sort of a compromise to get a nicer feel but worth it I think
1.2 Clio? If so yes you can use a 14mm socket but will need to be a deep one and slim walled, use a bit of fuel hose down the tube to pull the plug up once undone if you don't have a magnet
Diff ordered yesterday, looking at mid November for delivery!! Got to get it done before April, we are off to the ring again.... This time for my own stag do! Only a need to fit Brembos, diff, clutch..... Oh and get a civic turbo ready with @DV8 finish off the mk2 golf gti 20vt and hopefully my...
Yes mate! I think once you start chasing big numbers you'll have more reliability issues, the more you start fitting parts to handle the power the more you take away from what the little Clio is all about IMO!
Looking into a Torsen diff and found out that PMS are now supplying Sachs race clutches so don't have to get that from Germany now...
So finally will be able to skat the shitty helix clutch over the hedge and slap a LSD in at the same time without having to sell my body for funds...
