£7000 gear box new reanult
£ ? sub frame
£ ? mounts
£ ? remap / new ecu ?
£ ? gear linkage
£ ? work shop costs
£ ? cluch
Got all that...
You dont need a different subframe
You dont need different mounts
You dont need a different ECU
You can fabricate the lever and linkage if you are handy, or easy to buy
If you can change a gearbox you can fit a sequential
You can use a standard clutch
this is the info i got -
x 1 Sadev SDTSA six speed sequential gearbox with the facility of the full throttle cut switch fitted if wired into a compatible ECU will allow full throttle gear changes: £5942.38
This gearbox looks very much like a standard gearbox on the out side but has a specific stronger main cases and will bolt directly onto your engine.
x 1 Gear lever kit: £414.36 this will fit directly to the floor original position with the gear change rod going under the floor to the gearbox, as in the approximate original position.
x 1 Sadev sequential gear display kit: £352.43
x 1 Reverse release cable: £38.73
x 2 Sadev drive shafts Grp A kit: x 2 Drive shafts left and right side made to customers lengths, x 2 Lobro joints, x 2 Lobro low profile cans: £684.00.
The above would be the best and cheepest way to go as the drive shafts that are bought through Renault are: left side shaft: £556.51 and the right side: £633.95
All the above are plus vat and carriage if applicable.

Why not save yourself a load of hassel, time and probably £££ and just buy an ex cup race car?

Hi i race av6 ex trophy car with sadev box not cheap when they go wrong!!, you can change all the diff ratios aswell mines geared for about 127mph but did have 157mph diff in (for long tracks). Best person to speak to is Steve at SWR MOTORSPORT he is the main sadev agent for the uk, he's based in Halow Essex ,he also had 2 trophy v6's for sale, one is build no3 on of the prototypes built by ALPINE!
Does depend on milage and abuse disconnected ignition cut does kill them.
Not sure but you can use the clutch and don't have to full throttle shift all the time. I think the box is probly more likely to blow before the crank as I think they're only rated to 250bhp. I don't thrash mine 24/7 for the sake of it only 25% of the time
I have a small rad oil cooler for it with oil filter and tilton pump which prob also helps alot. Having said that it's not my only car so only do about 1 or 2k miles a year in it, had it 7 years, change oil every year and not had it serviced yet... knock on wood.Had lots of trouble with the paddle clutch though found it utterly useless on the road specially with 1st gear being so high. It juddered like hell and ate my flywheel after 4k miles. I find a normal heavy duty clutch much better for the road and probably much easier on the crank cos it doesn't bite so hard and fast.
Box and engine are out of my car at the moment so gonna send box off to steve at SWR to get it checked. He mentioned there's a weak area which can be replaced for a newer stronger part which I should probably do before I uprate my engine to very silly spec...
