My friend has given me a flat flywheel to use from an x14xe instead of my pot type....

What clutch setup will I need to buy??

And the f15 gearbox is the electrical speedo type and no good for my nova clocks..

What mechanical gearbox will bolt straight up?

I'm confused!!?

use a clutch off of the x14xe, and f13 and f15 mechanical boxes will fit

My only problem with the clutch is it needs to be 200bhp rated.. Iv found one for the pot type fly but Iv not looked into the 1.4 lol

*off to go look*

Will an f13 cope with much power?

200bhp from a x16xe ?!

What's the spec of the engine ?

It's not anything special just yet but the plans are to turbocharge it... Iv seen a fast road clutch rated to 200bhp but for the pot type fly...

Will having a flat fly really make much difference?

I thought people used a nova gte fly and clutch set up when doing this conversion ?

If I was doing the conversion I'd want a f13 from a nova, which has the clutch inspection plate, not a corsa box

I've got the original SRi flywheel, clutch and gearbox on mine.

Would I be able to take the mechanical drive out of my f10 and fit it to the f15?

better to pay attention to torque than bhp with clutch gearbox limits..?
best get a helix clutch for the f15cr, if your turbo-ing
