Just out of curiosity would an insignia gearbox and transfer box fit onto a c20let? Does anyone know if they're any stronger than the f28 And c20let transfer box? I've heard the let transfer box is a weak link so just trying to find other options.

cheers

Are the gearboxes M32's as I'm sure I've heard of people running them before?

Mokka would be easier I believe ad they run an m32 box ;)

The insignia vxr doesn't use the m32 I don't think. Never thought about the mokka. Don't fancy an m32 though not heard good things about them tbh

Wouldnt use a m32 to prop the garage door open.

M32 with an oil cooler would be fine, I know a couple of race cars using those.
or f23 as that's good and strong with more reliability

Have you done a ratio thingy these days for the m32?

I can't seem to find any info on the insignia vxr box. Really not interested in the m32 though. My mates astra one was fucked at 10k miles..

its ts actually more the transfer box I'm interested in. Would it fit onto an f28?

Locked transfer box on an F28?

I did see a place selling bits to do that. I'm not quite sure what it actually does though!

Locking rings in the transfer box rather than clutch plates

The insignia vxr uses audis quattro 4wd system so doubtful it would run on the f28 and iirc the box is an m32

Edit: it in fact uses the F40 box

It is not audi's specific system it is simply made by the same people.

Only the same as gartrak making the f23 and f28

Regardless it's still doubtful that it would run on an f28 :)
