Pity your not closer could had a go and see if it's what your after box wise. To be honest it's a bit wasted it's just a spare car.

They look great on paper mate...
The 5th gear ratio is epic but, I can say from experience (see sig) without big power and light weight, 5th is not much fun. Bloody good job 4th is good for 146

pedro where is this information that says what boxes are on the 2.0 litre cars?

Mine 854 will just sit on drive, at moment it's a daily driver until I fix the 850r

Dalhousie, I tried checking what box you had while I was doing your MBC. I shoved some of the crud away but it looked like the label had fallen off

**dalhousie2008** · Tuesday 31st January 2012, 20:38

I won't sell it. Dropped it 40mm today and fitted new brakes and strut brace. Just off loaded my auto t5r auto and the other r is at my mums. So only leaves the 850r and spare 854.

I had quite a few bits knocking about so it's had everything done apart from a 18 or 19t and exhaust. That's about it, Martin whens next southern meet

Gonna start a thread about that soon

waiting for a date for the next essex meet, so they don't collide if we're still up for the car share...

Only if it's not in half term as got kids, who ever drives just chip in or you drive to me then I drive to judges or something thus sharing?

Next Essex meet is Sunday 19th of February so it doesn't collide with WD40

Checked today 51mph at 2,000 rpm. So 153 at 6,000 rpm, which box would that be?

161.75 is flat out for gearing in a t5 box around 6200rpms

**dalhousie2008** · Wednesday 1st February 2012, 20:34

that would be around 158mph, so maybe it is the normal box?
