[Strell]

Oh s**t mate bad news.
Sound like it ain't gonna be cheap for any of those options
I say make it completely bullet proof this time round for when you reach the magic 500hp so it doesn't go bang again.
I hope you sort it out with out doing too much damage to your pocket

it isnt mate.....the engine its self is bullet proof mate thats the thing...the 6 speed o2m item ment to be the strongest box of the lot......trust me to feck it!!!

by the time this modding session is over.........ill be a few more k liter i suppose:dead:

 

[Mark One]

the 02J boxes are rumoured to be good for 330bhp.....
hope it lasts for you mate Just buy a few lol

The six speed you have currently - that's a diesel box iirc? or is it the audi TT box?
Wanted a six speed TT box for my project but have since been told that it's way too long (to get in a MK1 clio)

Note: please don't get excited anyone, I havent started yet. Saving takes too much time


Hope all goes well with fitting the new box When are you planning to do it?

 

[n0rm]

LOL its no normal 02j box mate...its got quife'' dog'' internals......the box i currently have is a ''o2m'' gttdi box......there the strongest standard box you can get......no idea about fitting it in yours, there certainly will be chassis leg moding needed yes

as for fitting, ive taken the clio off the...ordered the parts yesterday, there due here in the morning....not in any rush tho.....ive got all winter

 

[Simon_172]

freefest is a music festival in chesterfield queens park. its a good day you you 3 should come meet me when you have cleaned the car

 

[MATT BLACK]

The engine and box comes out in just under 1 hour - unbolting the driveshafts ( 6 alan key's on each shaft ) were it connects them to the output shafts is the biggest ball ache. Also the downpipe is pretty tricky to unbolt as its on a bad angle. The engine has been in and out about 10 times in total - very easy job. In order to get the engine sitting level i had to use spacers on the mounts - make sure you take note of were they go when refitting them. The rest is lego - you have my number Matt ring me if you need help

 

[n0rm]

cheers matt, will do.....im gonna acumalate all the bits first, i per our convo on the phone, with a 5 speed box that car is deffo gonna go quicker as the ratios are better

the clutch and flywheel are on order and should be here today, then its just getting the rite box at the rite money...and then ill send the box of to gearbox man in coventry for him to fit the box internals

no rush...ie got all winter!!

Oooh! Might bob down! Will drop you a texitcle on sat

 

[mini-valver]

Just rebuild the box you have, there's not gonna be a massive amount wrong with it. No harm in taking it out and getting the internals out. I reckon even without ever working on your car I'd have the box out and in bits in less than a day!

Norm - i agree. fix the current box and then just get the other one slapped in when you have the money. you know it makes sense man

the box is wrong mate.....the ratios are way to long...id rather do it propperly this time ready for the upage in power......dave do you realise the engine has to come all the way out for the box to be removed!!

 

[MATT BLACK]

The box is limiting the car to 11 sec quarters due to the ratio's ( diesel box ) - This engine is capable of 10 sec quarters no messin - just needs the transmission sorting out and maybe a race logic traction control system bolting on

 

[Strell]

So are you defo selling up?
It will be a great shame if you don't decide to keep it.
All that time and effort (and money) and you won't break the 10sec yourself?

He's put a deposit down an a vee (i think, couldn't hear properly on phone) so wouldn't realistically be able to afford it. but i agree. bigtime loss maan. hope it goes to a good home

 

[DeeKay86]

Why not ask people on here to donate money towards fixing the gearbox?? I hear there are lots of rich people on here!!! LOL

i think alot of people would actually chip in towards it aswell - i know i would donate som coinage ££££££

 

[DeeKay86]

Do as I say Mr Norm and you shall prevail!

I am sure everyone will agree that YOU are the best person to get this car where it will be and you have been the best to get it where it is at the moment!

How much do you need to get it going again!?!?!

No harm in asking right???

Everyone on here should donate a couple of sheckles-

[The Boosh!]

he spent alot of coinage on a clutch - and i know the gearbox it needs is circa 2k lol. We love you norm xx

 

[Strell]

Yeah lets do some Not Norm "charity" events lol.
But seriously i think you should stick with it.
When you think what you have spent already whats another 2k lol (I can't believe i said that, but it is true)
Then you would have the fastest clio in the world.
Obviously only one person can say that and that man has to be you!

 

[ashy_gtt]

Shoulda bought my vee, could of done a nice px

 

[J03]

shame,... that would piss alll over a Vee!!!

 

[MATT BLACK]

You wont find a buyer on here - people are to scared to put there money into a car like this. Maybe if it had a panel filter, 17"s, sub, amp and a kit it would be snapped up. Mans car this and theres to many boys about


I would buy it back - just the wrong time

 

[.GAZ.]

lol^

i thought he was getting rid of mini for the vee

norm- need to sort that bonnet with you

 

[MATT BLACK]

Honestly this car will out accelerate almost everything you come accross - £4500 is a bargain

 

[ashy_gtt]

Honestly this car will out accelerate almost everything you come accross

Not with a fooked gearbox it wont :quiet:

 

[Macester]

if i was older and had the knowledge id snap the fucker up straight away, cheap as chips for the power, amazing performance, all those hours that have been put into it, hope it doesn't go to an idiot!

 

[Christopher]
