My exhaust cam cover started to melt closest to the manifold - I've since got zircotec so don't know if it would happen now - but a skim of J4 covers and curil T and my J4's have never leaked at all.
Loving the 6 speed box more and more Martin! Deffo an option I'll be taking at some point! Well done.

On standard j4 followers so set the limit to 7800
the bottom end is forged and balanced so will easy see 9k, if the turbo is still pulling at 7.8 I might go for solid lifters and see what it makes
This box on my tyres should see 168mph
Got the wheels back today so if I have time I'll fit them later

What would it cost to have a 6 speed box built? Could it work with a satchshift?

The splitter is 2 from a mk2 golf small bumper gti
( the golf isnt as wide so needs to be made of 2 spliters)
If you supply a be4 and a be3/6 i can convert for £100
There is only 2 differences between the standard be conversion and this, 1 being the hole needed in the chassis leg and the other that would be the only prob with a sacthchift ( and the reason i havent fitted one) is the lift up reverse setup on the gearlever

Sorry I didn't make that clear, I know Colin makes a BE kit, but can it be adapted to the 6 speed and the reverse mech?

there's no difference 5 to speed, reverse stop is something you'll have to figure yourself, wont be hard though.
I have seen a diesel stop solenoid utilised as it happens, so you could have a button you press before selecting reverse, or stick to cable with a bike brake lever.

aswelsh says apart fromthe box sticking through the chassis its exactly the same as the normal BE conversion
the cable doesnt move that far (max half inch) so just needs something making up to fit the gearlever (the gti6system wont work with the nylon sach gearknob ) i used a gti6 lever as it was easy but prob wouldnt be that hard to adapt something, most vauxhalls and mk1 clios use the lift up reverse
the downside ofthe 6 speed be is there isnt the choice of gears there is with the 5 speed and unless you have mega money you cant do bugger all with the FD
