is it too late to jump in here? id quite like some clear ones if possible

hi guys my gearbox has finally gone into retirement, ive been offered a gearbox out of a 1.8 16v corrado but want to make sure the box will fit onto my g60 lump. also is this gearbox well suited to the car? and its a cable change box - is that any different from standard and if it is will this pose any problems? thanks again guys Andy
-
so what do you think is best guys a 20vT box a mk3 16V box or add a vr6 second gear into the box during the recon? ive always felt that first was too short for the g60, would fitting both first and second from a vr6 box be any better? i want to do the odd quater mile and dont want to have to take off in second.
-
my gearbox only has a few weeks of life left in it, was going to get it reconed but what other boxes will fit that would make my g6 more fun to drive. i like the odd race so i use them all the way to the redline, but would like something that will still be ok to pooter about in if i need to.

cheers banana man ill do that tonite if i can any hints on how to do it?

sorry guys its a 91 g60 *mod edit - Removed triple post for you - Henny*

its the best way to describe my problem, the car runs fine, all the temps are normal, doent misfire (that i can hear) yet she has what seems like a constant flatspot. you put the old right foot down and she goes, makes all the normal noises, but just doesnt pull, i can tell there is something amiss but just what it is is driving me mad. i know she had trouble with idle probs and the throttle position sensor from talking to the previous owner. could it be this again? any help greatly appreciated Andy.
-
if its an intake temp sennsor id imagine it should go along one of the intake pipes b4 the throttle body andy.

ive disovered that the oe heat exchanger is fine and the oil leak is from the hoses, i can get away with leaving the exchanger in place, is there any benefit to this or is it just something else to go wrong
-
will an rsr outlet fit a standard charger?
-
hi guys, again im after your expert knowledge, i was wondering if its possible to remove the resonator box from the supercarger and will it make the charger noise any louder, i want to her my charger sing as i overtake novas and the like cheers Andy.

the silver thing you are talking about is the fuel filter, and the buzz will be the fuel pump, priming the system, id check there is a spark on the 4 cylndes, then check there is fuel etc getting there but fill the car up with water first!! sorry i couldnt be of more help but im a relative newbie too the others will come in in a while and baffle you with tales of co2 pots and things like that. hope you get the problem fixed take care happy dubbing Andy.

no i left the original heat exchanger in place, there was enough clearance to fit the sandwich plate and the filter. does anybody have the part numbers for the bypass pipes, i could just use a bit of pipe but id prefer to do it proper.
