custard-rallye 25 Posted October 17, 2008 hi, just joined just a few questions on the 205 rallye is the box they come with any good as mine seems really long geared which is not what i expected as being a ex 106 rallye owner the box on them is far from long. is the engine easy to tune i have a vtr engine in the shed if it would be better off putting that in i wouldnt mind a euro spec engine but i cant find any and funds are low at the moment but could be a future purchase any help would be appreciated cheers Stefan.

Jrod 7 Posted October 17, 2008 (edited) UK 205 rallyes are pretty crap as standard to be honest. Really long ratio box and a 75bhp iron block engine, XS engine and box drop straight in and give 85bhp as standard, 20kg less and a really nice short ratio box.

custard-rallye 25 Posted October 18, 2008 ah i thought the box was really long might just save for a euro engine and get a ax gt box or xs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tandoh 17 Posted December 22, 2008 ah i thought the box was really long might just save for a euro engine and get a ax gt box or xs. The problem with getting a Euro engine is finding one! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaveW 6 Posted December 22, 2008 Yeah get an xs/gt box the 106 rallye one is good but its not worth paying £100+ for a 2nd box which you know has been ragged.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
