The only problem we have had is with the gears crunching. This is a known problem and is due to the fact that Lotus use a rubber hydraulic hose for the clutch, which balloons and does not allow the clutch to fully engage . The cure is simple and just requires changing the hose to a braided item .



Other than that, it doesn't run a limited slip diff , so spins which-ever wheel has the least weight on it . The idea is to fit a Quaife ATB next year .

I don't "think" we're pushing the power levels of the gearbox yet, but there are upgrades available if required .
