I got to the point where I was just buying up £50 gearboxes and building the gearsets into my casing. I have to say though, you pass another milestone at 280lb/ft (GENUINE) IMO. One where gearbox breaking goes up another level. Mine got so that I could barely take on an overtake without pulling the teeth off third gear!! LOL. 3 gearsets in about 1500 miles was pretty good going.
It's my third, stripped teeth on the input shaft, and 3d gear already :thumbup
I wont be spending £1300, I already have the Quaife ATB so i'll either get a secind hand CTS 2+ and sell my diff paying for around half of it, or i'll fit the ATB into something like a big bearing Jamsport box, etc..
