Cup Racer Box Rebuild

[mike1pow]

I hear that the Sadev box needs to rebuilt quite often but was wonderng how often the 'boxes on the Clio race cars are rebuilt?

Every race?

 

[Fred@BTM]

na not even that, strip down 2-3 times a year if that

SWR are the main boys in the uk, but uber expensive from memory, some of my customers do them themselves (not that hard infact) or use a company near silverstone

 

[mike1pow]

Cheers Fred thats what i wanted to hear!

After watching them at OP on sunday, it got me and my bro thinking about getting a cup racer as a track weapon

 

[Fred@BTM]

and that was doing a full season, if its a track car you'll need to change the oil and that's about it, maybe strip it in the winter

 

[Carlos Fandango]

All I ever did was regular oil changes.

 

[mike1pow]

i know its the wrong section but how much would a set of slicks cost and how long do they last??

 

[Fred@BTM]

new slicks?

 

[mike1pow]

yup

 

[Fred@BTM]

anywhere from £150+ each

 

[p@blo]

Mike, that'd be immense. How much can you pick up a mk2 CR nowadays? There were a couple of the old palmersport ones for sale a while back but general consensus was that they'd had a hard life.

 

[Fred@BTM]

^name a race car that hasn't had a hard life? LOL

 

[p@blo]

Lol, this is true! I'll bell you tomorrow mike.

The TF110 has never raced.

Bit of an old thread this, but not worth making another one for what I need to know...
How much are the SADEV sequential boxes? I presume it's the STDSA one?

 

[adam172]

was there not one for sale around 9k not that long ago ? i could be totally wrong though

 

[edewer]

think ktec had one up for £6.5ish

 

[Jamie]

Need a trailor and tow car as well which bumps up the cost a bit.

 

[millzzz]

Cheers fella's.

 

[E11OOT]

i know of one for sale for 4.5k

Just the box or driveshafts, lever, linkage etc?

 

[E11OOT]

ph1 driveshafts (don't know if they differ from ph2's), not sure about leaver and linkage

 

[mikekean]

If there standard phase 1 shafts then its not one from a cup racer as you have to use the sadev shafts due to the sadev LSD they use.

that's an H pattern box, not sequential.

 

[Tony Hunter]

Like the ones from our old cup cars.
