Im looking at replacing my gearbox soon, as 3rd is becomming a problem. (syncro is nackered!)
Im looking for some advice on which renault gearbox (jb or jc) would be best suited as a close ratio box keeping the standard internals. Looking for something with short ratios or something with a larger final drive ratio giving me less road speed per engine rev. Basically i dont care after 100mph, maybe 120mph tops, but getting there is important.
I know it will have to be something from a pre 98 clio, possibly a jb1, but not really sure after that.
Whats the story on diesel box's and those outa kango's and stuff?
