straight bolt on , they are exactly the same fitment its just the gear ratios that are different.

Are they significantly different? I noticed at the lakes meet with matts car when accelerating gear changes where completely different from mine.

In what way?

Slightly tongue in cheek maybe ... but the Vee is a manual gearbox so surely gear changes are entirely driver inspired :race:

I've got a mk2 box on a mk1

Defo big difference - shorter shift plus ratios are lower for 1st to 3rd gears and better matched to the engines power curve

If you can find one for sale make sure you keep the mk1 flywheel and clutch as its stronger than the mk2 version

Perfekt then i just need a new gearbox 3000euro here in sweden :s Have asked if K-tec can deliver a new one with a quaife diff installed
Got my new TTV flywheel today 5.5kg would be a big diffrence to oem 13kg

I would cerainly consider the Phase 2 gearbox for the reasons stated above.

The Quaife ATB diff and TTV Flywheel combination is hihgly recommended :approve: This definitely needs the Phase 1 clutch so best of both worlds really.
