  • 1.3 -4 speed box to a 5 speed?

    Hi Guys,
    This has probably been asked before- but is it possible to change the 4 speed for a 5 speed, and how hard is it, generally?

    I've recently acquired a '91 1.3 Clubman- I wanted to go back to a simple car that's British, interesting to drive and cheap to run-and I plan to take her to the Le Mans Classic in July... Whilst she nips along quite nicely, she does feel a tad 'undergeared' when sitting at 60mph- at least in comparison to our 1.3 'Surf' we had 20 years ago...

    Any thoughts/advice gratefully received!

    Thanks
    Mark

    re 4 speed to 5 speed

    yes its straight forward you just mite have to adjust the gear change link benieth the the gear change stick under the rubber boot under the car.use a 1.3 gearbox but not the ledbury box as the gear ratio is lower unless thats all thats available
