Now wasn't there a 3200 for sale cheap without a gear box.....That would a job and a half making a 3200 into a CC.

 

[Pibbow]

Joking aside would it be possible to put a cc gearbox in a 3200?

 

[Andyk]

I don't see why not...if you have the knowledge.

If all the underside is the same layout, then why not.........but then you'd need to be sure about the ECU set up etc........might have to change a lot more as well!!

Would be pretty cool and unique...

 

[Pibbow]

If I were to do the conversion I would use a Gransport gearbox as it seems more sorted.

 

[Parisien]

It won't fit a 3200....as its gearbox is just behind the engine.

[Andyk]

Thats that then....

 

[Pibbow]

Bugger it back to plan "open cup"

P, am I misreading your post? You're saying the GS isn't transaxle? Hmmmmm.

 

[conaero]

Myles, the GS box is different and more sorted than the 4200 coupe box.

My understanding is the 4200 s boxes are at the rear axle.....3200s are just behind the engine........stand to be corrected though.....lol

The 3200 is the more conventional Engine/clutch/Geartrag gearbox as one unit, then prop, to a live rear axle which houses the dif and 2 drive shafts.

The 4200 and GS are the same layout, Engine/clutch as one unit, then drive shaft, to a live rear axle which houses the gearbox/dif (transaxle) and 2 drive shafts.

The CC gearbox was updated in the GS and renamed from CambioCorsa to Robotobox.

 

[Emtee]

Thanks for clarifying that Gents! I did not know the gearbox was changed between the 4200 and GS. Wonder what the failings of the 4200 box are? Robotobox? Sounds like something out of Transformers!

 

[Parisien]

Robotbox just means....its a manual......worked by hydraulics minus the clutch pedal...ie paddles.

Its confusing as i thought that the GT was the manual and the CC was the F1 paddle box on the 4200.
Is there any difference in either at this point?
