gearbox?

[micra.jas]

rite as u know im doing my turbo conversion for my cg10.

But....as my gearbox and clutch need replacing, i want to know if i can change to a cg13 gearbox becuase i have been told that they r more stronger?

also if they do not fit then will a replacment cg10 gearobx be fine for my turbo conversion even if i dnt drive like a idiot, which i dnt!

i know everyone has diffent opinions and views and u never know who is right or not but if anyone has had any experinace with this then please can u gve me some info.

thanks jason.

Is your car a facelift or pre-facelift??

Is it's a pre-facelift then I'm pretty certain that the CG13 gearbox will not fit.
If it's a facelift, I think it will.

Might as well just change to the CG13 engine!!!

I thought you could fit the CG13 box to the CG10 if you have the rear gearbox mount, and use the CG13 flywheel and clutch?

 

[ollie240585]

If you have the rear gear box mount yes I think you can actually....I'm really not sure :|

 

[NeX]

i think you will be fine, cos even the GA16 gearbox fits on without too much hassel, good old nissan made everything fit everything else

you may need a custom gearbox gasket but i doubt it

you may need a custom gearbox gasket but i doubt it

Which gasket?

 

[micra.jas]

so u r saying the cg13 gearbox will fit but only if i have the xtra bits to make it fit?

and will this be better for my turbo?

not sure on pre-facelift, but i fitted a 1.3 box to my cg10 block.
if a pre-facelift doesn't have a rear box mount, what holds the rear of the engine/box up?
also if you can get a cg10 flywheel from a facelift, it's lighter than the cg13 fly and also uses the same 180mm clutch.

 

[Alienfish360]

the facelifted flywheel is that a forged/cast steel 2 piece flywheel aswell?


I'm 100% the pre-facelift doesn't have the rear gearbox mount.

Which gasket?

the metal one between the engine and box...

so u r saying the cg13 gearbox will fit but only if i have the xtra bits to make it fit?

and will this be better for my turbo?

cos you are turbo-ing a 1.0 and not upgrading the internals which means you will have to run low boost... i don't think you will have much to worry about running a CG10 box. your power output won't be gearbox rippingly powerful

 

[Swiper]

the metal one between the engine and box...

they are the same on both boxes

the facelifted flywheel is that a forged/cast steel 2 piece flywheel aswell?


I'm 100% the pre-facelift doesn't have the rear gearbox mount.

the facelift 1.0 fly is a single piece jobbie. iirc it's about 2kg lighter.

also i'm not doubting you on the rear mount. i'm just asking what holds the rear of engine/box up

 

[Alienfish360]

no idea, nothing I don't think just the rest of the mounts, will double check though when it's light tomorrow.

is the facelift CG10 fly cast though?

 

[NeX]

they are the same on both boxes

yea i mean for the ga16 or some other box... but knowing nissan it will be one for all and all for micras

 

[Alienfish360]

for the GA16 box though you need the n-CVT I think it is =/

 

[Swiper]

is the facelift CG10 fly cast though?

yes cast still

 

[Alienfish360]

I'll use the CG13 fly then

 

[NeX]

for the GA16 box though you need the n-CVT I think it is =/

but the NCVT is automatic... ewww!

 

[Alienfish360]

you need it for the GA16 gearbox I THINK or something else with some other dodgy accronym, I'm sure titch can elaborate.

 

[Ian]

im sure george said you need a 1.4 (renault k11) NCVT starter motor.

Arent the facelift 1.0l just on a CG13 box/clutch? Or is it a new box for it?

 

[Swiper]

I'll use the CG13 fly then

but it's heavier!

 

[Alienfish360]

I'll be getting it machined down so it will be lighter, but you can't machine cast materials as they risk splitting, and I don't fancy buying a scatter shield to protect me and the rest of the engine bay when it goes
