its the same box isnt it? f13 cr even if the 1.4 has the f15 is the same gearing just stronger casing, not that the engine needs it. i got an f13 on my td and that has more torque than a gsi and its fine.

no mines an f13wr but i have suspicions that the one in my bros is a cr cos his revs a lot high at lower speeds, ie mine does 80 mph at 3k in 5th whereas his is doin 60 at 3k.

The only Corsa with f15 as standard was the Sport 1.6 and pre 1994 GSi's. Kris, the F15 has different ratios in 4th and 5th, and also a different final ratio.

i do not know much about these. I think they were only offered as WR on cruisers like cav 1.8/2.0 8v's, Vectra Diesels, 1.8 petrols and probably a few Astras.
