6 speed box into 182??

[Dan R]

Has anyone on here or heard of anyone put a 6 speed box into a 182?? Either the megane or 197 box??

TL4 might go but PK6 wont

Dont bother though as you dont need 6th - there both poor boxes anyway

thats it then must be stronger than 182 box??

TL4's are OK at the moment - its when they get to 60k or 3 to 4 years old they will start breaking, just like the JC5's. The PK6 boxes are a load of junk full stop - i sell about 20 a week for Laguna's, Traffics and the odd Clio V6

ok cool. which one goes in which car??

at a guess i'd say the TL4 is for the 197. PK6 is the meggy

I thought that when Fred was with Yozzasport they were offering a 6 speed conversion of some discription. Was it just a figment of my imagination?

Just pm'd dan with that exact thought! I'm sure they did, pricey though IIRC.

Meggy uses the (nissan designed?) ND0 box which is much better overall as far as i'm aware, 197 uses the same. The PK6 is fitted to stuff with the old 3.0 v6 such as the Laguna V6 and Clio V6, and the traffic dci 6 speed.

Not sure which/how/what with a TL4 box though.

Pretty sure you could put a 6 speed gearset into a JC5 box and that was the idea, ND0 box is too big and doesn't fit.

or just run a proper seven speed hewland box if you can get them at the right price..
about 3/4k secondhand..with driveshafts..

correct, with LSD, different ratios on 1-5 plus the extra 6th, plus rebuild, pump, lines, cooler etc, its probably over £4k now

 

[Capitanlento]

could be fit the laguna 2.0 t 170hp 6 speed gearbox?

 

[Brett]

I'd like a 6th gear in my 182. It would be awesome with the 200's ratio's. Well maybe a slightly longer top gear for motorway stuff.

02m vw gearbox, has been covered many times... Scoff has developed a flywheel and adaptor plate for it.

look at efi-parts.co.uk,
would need to fit audi/vw shifter box, hydro clutch, mounts and custom speedo.

Get a taller 5th fitted to standard box

6 gears isnt all that, my 1st is practically useless!
