Hi,
Gearbox is finally of the car. I managed to get the needed clearance by unbolting the clutch pressure plate.
Now I’m wondering if maybe it would be wise idea for me to change the clutch plate and the pressure plate also, because I’m thinking of doing some engine tuning as well in the near future, so it might be wise to upgrade clutch as well.
It might be useful if someone could tell me how much torque the standard clutch can handle also.
Another issue is the gearbox. When I last drove it I noticed that with second and third gear the gearbox made some clattering noise, especially with second gear. Any ideas of what might be the problem? Also has anyone taken one apart? Are there any extraordinary bearings or something that fore sure has to be ordered from abroad?
Also if you have any information considering the ZF gearbox like how much torque it could handle I would be very interested.
Any tips what to remember when butting it all together afterwards or ideas of what should be changed also during these jobs are also very welcome.
