Hi! Any updates on how it drives? I drove my van today, and really thought about wether 3400 revs for 55ish mph was definitely too much and time for a change... Specially since last weekend I drove behind a mate in his 1600tp split and he was doing 70mph eaaasily while I was struggling trying to keep up!Just spoke to another mate that happens to have a 1303 box in his garage gathering dust...and it is becoming very tempting as a winter project. Do you still have any sets left? I would like one, please..I' ll pm you
And by the way, what else did you use, because I also have a coupke of brand new cv joints for a golf that I sold and never fitted(?)

 

[AxlFoley]

it drives really well, my 1600sp is on its way out and needed a tune so I didnt get the full use of the box, the RPM was a lot lower on the motorway though.

Got your PM will reply now.

Can I ask why? Why would you go to all this trouble? Whats wrong with the gearbox that nature intended?

 

[ibérico]

I don't know how much trouble it will be to fit as I haven't done my yet....
But if you do any motorway runs regularly I'm sure you will appreciate 700rpm less at the same cruising speeds :lol: ...and so will your engine (and wallet!)
On the other hand, if you only drive along b-roads I also agree it would not be so necessary

Any of those snappy spacers left?..... Be interested in a set sent to Oz if it is possible.

Thanks a lot, Mark! I got my set this weekend, but forgot to post a little thank you :roll:
Hope all of you guys that got a set start fitting them and telling us how you are getting on with it!
Cheers
