my brand new cts stg 2 rs turbo gearbox for sale in the rs turbo parts for sale pm me if interested mate
stephen wot ever gearbox u want to fit other than b5 you will need to modify,st170 getrag all the way, get the mount welded then blow in the paint,job done these boxes handle power(dont fit vauxhall bits to a ford)im all for different mods,but please
dunno for sure but twin plate ap clutch and steel flywheel 1200 ish
box with diff and shot peened gearset 1300 ish then mounts fitting etc etc etc drive shafts lol it adds up, you dont have to use a twin plate etc but thats what im doing.
what about the jamsport big bearing gearboxes what are they like? ive seen some big power cars with them white series 2 300bhp+ 2.1zvh, isnt stu s2 running one to?

Tim didnt you hav a good box in. why you changing it
just not strong enough i carnt use full power it just shits itself and i plan on givin lukes fiesta a run for its money when i have my new set up finished.
thats will be good mate, am building a new engine for mine and will be looking in getin a new box cos am wantin over 300+ bhp and was thinkin the 1 you had in would be good enuf
more spending on the list tim, cts is a good box,but ive heard too many brake through big power and its a lot of cash for it to brake, so pay a little extra and do it properly
dont know what mounts are like on the box, wondered if the cvh cradle could be adapted and save welding the car itself. just a thought like
they have got a frount mount thats fitted to the inner wing or when fitting a 6 speed box a new mount has to be welded they then have a back mount that bolts near the back lower part of the enging bay
probaly easyer to use an st170 box and then try and fit that to the cradle imo probaly easyer to just use the st170 mount tho
ask tim and i think luca broke one too,hence his newly aquired st170 box!!,dont get me wrong they do handle power and not any trouble to fit with it bin an modded rst box, should handle easy 300hp good for most

Fair fecks to you Tim,youre on a much much higher level to most of us RST owners!!The amount of money its going to cost you to get a reliable box has me shocked!!! Way out of my league,respect to you for doing it. See you at Nat Day,regards,micky
aye micky im looking forward to nd if my box lasts the day i will be happy lol, will only have a bar of boost but it will be fun whatever ,as for boxes and stuff both ollie and myself have a plan his is beaing assembled as we speak also, then we can both have full power captain lmao,wasnt going to bother anymore tbh but after a few things the other day it made my mind up. Im sure 1 of us will break 180,but im more interested in 1/4 mile stuff, next year should be very good imo
I have had a 6 speed box in mine for almost 3 years now, and never had a single issue. I did spilit it for a look after the first year and everything was fine, never tuched it since.

It does have a quife LSD. That cost about £700.

what i meant; does it have a standard st170 box have an lsd in it from factory
Tim what you doing about your starter, cos i think they are on the back of the engine on an st170. is there another front cover (bell housing) you are putting on, and what you doing with the drive shafts, cos the st has a bearing on the os shaft

mine will be the mtx 75 not the st box so starter will be on the front
