I know this is one of the oldest discussions in the history of time, but here goes:
I will be buying a 98 cinq sporting with a ****ed engine next week so am thinking about doing a 1242 conversion along with an induction kit, mckritch chip and custom exhaust inc. 4-2-1 manifold.
But more to the point, i need to know which gearbox is going to give me a decent top end without screaming its tits off, as i do a lot of long journeys up north, and i cant imagine a constant 4500-5000 revs for a few hours is gonna do it many favours. So considering a six speed box, does anyone know if the one off the new panda 100hp will fit and what will the 6th gear ratio be like?
Any suggestions, comments and advice will be much appreciated
