guy's,
i'm new to playing with french cars, as i typically play with toyotas. anyway, i'm looking for any info regarding the 5 speed transaxle as fitted to just about every type of renault it would appear. I have a project to build a lotus seven type replica, running a transaxle in the rear (the renault one is somewhat cheaper than a hewland one..)
I've gathered up some info on the supposed gear ratios (seems to be alot of variation), does anyone know how easy/difficult it would be to change the final drive ratio? does renault or anyone make a ratio lower than 4.1:1? (like 4.3)?
how about lsd's? anything factory or that can be retrofitted? Gear sets?
lots of unusual questions here i guess, but it's kind of hard to find this sort of info.
thanks
T
