Unexplored Renault transaxles

In the ever growing hope that such things do exist..has anyone explored the possibility of the New Renault Traffic turbo diesel 6spd transaxle?
Also the UN-5 transaxle from the master van is being used in open classoff road buggies in australia in preference to porsche and VW. It uses a 9.5" CWP....whic curiously is the same size as the R21T. Does anyone have info on th UN-5's (the master van is the big Renault van with a 2.5lt turbo diesel...big in european terms). The only final drive I am aware of is 1:5.35....however if they are better than UN-1's then it may be cheaper to get different CWP sets made than theBell kit for the UN-1?

 

I forgot to mention that the UN-5 is available NEW in australia for $1600AUS....about $900US and 600UKP which makes it seem good value for money...apart from the final drive.
I know that different gear sets are available from Albins in Wendouree (again in $aus)

did anyone research this? could be good for non-race cars (mine):shy:

The UN-5 transaxle looks very promising at first glance, but the shaft center-to-center measurement is so small that the gear strength just isn't there. Those Albins aftermarket gears are failing in short order in off road cars.

Gents,

Would it hold up better/longer:laugh: if it was used in a low HP GT?
