johnrobertgordon 0 Posted June 27, 2006 I had palnned to use a 1.6 box, clutch and driveshafts. Bt i have been told that the 1.6 box is going to be a little short. Also there is strength issues with the 1.6 shafts and clutch. Has any one here runa 1.9 TT with 1.6 running gear? John Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danpug 1 Posted June 27, 2006 Your engine will be coming with an mi16 f/wheel so use that with an mi16 clutch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pdd144c 0 Posted June 27, 2006 It will struggle for grip with a 1.9 box so id imagine a 1.6 item will be dreadful. Really need a LSD aswell. Mi16 Flywheel is a good option, allows you upgrade to standalone management when required. 1.6 hubs will also limit your brake choices, which will need uprating.

TEKNOPUG 3 Posted June 27, 2006 I think he wants to know what gearbox, ratios, driveshafts etc to use. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pdd144c 0 Posted June 27, 2006 Id say all 1.9 bits then! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TEKNOPUG 3 Posted June 27, 2006 I was referring to Danpugs post - bit of delay I'm afraid. Yeah, as I said earlier, 1.9 parts at least as it'll still spin up with those gear ratios in 1st/2nd and 3rd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pug_ham 245 3 Cars Posted June 27, 2006 Just ask Henry Yorke how bad his turbo is with a 1.6 gearbox. Definately 1.9 stuff all the way. Graham. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
