  1. I discovered this thread in the archive: Which has been very useful to me. We have suffered a CRB failure on our BE3 box, and I now think it could be because the lower bush is yellow and the top bush white. We have the 79mm arms, so I think they should both be yellow. I believe the part I am looking for is 2175 14. I am struggling to find it for sale, any suggestions? Also, what are the 'protectors' (item 4 in the diagram)? TiA
  2. I've decided to reproduce three most desired gear knob tops for Ph 2 GTI and Griffe. First samples have arrived and though very faithful to the original (except it is not hard plastic but more rubbery) they are not perfect yet. I have adjusted few things and hopefully next samples will be as perfect as possible. As it looks now due to small quantity (2 figures) I can afford the price at £10 posted (regular mail, payment as a gift). If anybody is interested please make a queue following my example: 1. Rjuhar, 1x BE1, 1x BE3, 1x GRIFFE
  3. I currently have a BE3 gearbox running in my 1600 8v GTi Rally car, Standard box with a 4:5 CWP and a Quaife ATB LSD. But the gearbox is Knackered and I need the car out again quick for the next round of the chamionship, Is there any other box that would fit directly on to my 1600 8v GTI engine with out haveing to modify Bellhousings or linkages ect ect. If so what are the codes and what cars did they come in, I have another BE3 box but it's getting refurbished
  4. Alreet, My gearbox has made driving my 1.9 gti miserable. Crunch in second, can't enage first 80% of the time, same for 3rd and now can't get it into reverse at all. (Even when I put it in second then reverse, that's long been my technique) so i'm going to get the gearbox rebuilt. I wanted it doing anyway so might as well do it now considering I no longer have reverse. Any reccomendations to who would do it? pref in lancashire. Also how much to pay? I'm geusssing at £500-800? I've found this place here: http://www.geartorque.co.uk/ So unless anyone has any decent ideas i'll probably take it there,i've asked for a quote. Thanks for reading.
  5. Afternoon all, This is a quick and simple question for those in the know; Does the BE3 box in the 1.6 CTI use the same ratios/final drive as the 1.6 GTI box? Basically, are they the same box? I have been searching the forum, the ratios spreadsheet and various other places for a day or two and I can't seem to find a definitive answer on the subject, or any kind of answer. I've found nothing to confirm they are the same but equally nothing they confirms they are different. I've found much about the differences between the 1.9 CTI and GTI boxes but nothing regarding the 1.6. Does anyone know? Thanks guys.
  6. Hi, i am looking to put a 1600 16v into my 205 gti rally car due to class reasons, this has probably been mentioned before but i couldn't see anything, as the topic says, is it possible to use my be3 gearbox on a 1600 16v out of the Peugeot 106 gti ?
  7. Hi There, I'm in the process of acquiring a replacement gearbox for my 1.6 GTi Rally Car. After doing some research I have concluded that the ratios in a 1.9 GTi box should work pretty well, considering that I have a 4.9 CWP setup to put into the new box. The problem is I am struggling to source a decent donor 1.9 BE3 box, they seem to be rarer that rocking horse poop these days, so I have been doing quite a bit of research into suitable alternatives. I have found that the ratios in a 206 GTi 180 box are almost identical to those in a 1.9 GTi box, therefore I am wondering if this is a suitable alternative bearing in mind that, if my research is correct, the GTi 180 uses a BE4 box. I have a KAAZ diff, and the aforementioned 4.9 CWP, to go into my new box, however I am unsure of the compatibility of a BE4 box with my engine. Various threads on here talk about the differences between BE3 & BE4 boxes, however I've not found anyone using a BE4 box with the 1.6 GTi engine - is this because it can't be done? If anyone can give me some information as to whether this could be done I would greatly appreciate it. Many Thanks. Dave.
