i think mark shede mite of had one in a car hes had mite be worth pm him

 

hello,

in Uk Mark shead have one and paul hills,andrew gallecher also

thanks

 

Andy Gallagher sold his to me and it's currently in a 375bhp Sapphire undergoing testing .

 

What is your inital impression of the kit Mike?

 

It's LOUD! It has also developed a noise (only during hard acceleration in 2nd and 3rd) which we are trying to trace (either the transfer chain is jumping, the exhaust is vibrating on the side of the casing, or it has chipped a tooth on 2nd and 3rd). As soon as we have eliminated the obvious, I will confirm. Drives sweetly though (and the owner is known to be an animal ).

 

that kit is the old version and i admit,is loud,in Uk is only mark that have the new one and is quiter

 

hello,

for drag races and serious trackday cars we have a dog box kit

1st 3.181
2nd 2.166
3rd 1.625
4th 1.277
5th 1.047 top speed 207.21km/h at 7000 rpm with 16"


the ratio can be changed to your requests

what kit is in that in the video?

 

Mike did use find the cause of the noise in the saph box ?

 

i have the second version in my escort and this is not extremly loud, but my friend drive with the first version and we note the difference right away..

in my opinion this kit is a great product for this price ... i checked with my own eyes this kit on a escort with almost 630hp on run from 0-200m...and still drive with this kit now...

for me quality price i vote 10/10.

 

how much is the kit for a road going car at 500bhp

 

Ł1500 in a group buy

 

we need mike to tell us what the proublem was

 

It's my unmapped Cossie. It's the synced Semi-Cut kit. Here is a pic: http://www.garaget.org/?car=10638&image=1867180

I am very pleased with my kit. Works great! Noise, well yes, but i like it

Regards/Jonas

 

Would be good if they did ready built boxes on a exchange to avoid downtime while the box is out the car.

 

this is the reason my father in law keeps holding back on getting one. He would rather a bolt in and go.

 

you can buy a 4x4 cosworth box for Ł200 or less now a days

have it built with gearkit , swap over and sell your box

 

Just for people's information, the noise was indeed the transfer chain jumping and this has now been fixed. The gearbox is very good (other than it is loud) . Obviously 375bhp isn't going to trouble it though LOL.

 

Mark Shead fitted one in Cyril's mallard escos, holding up so far so good,
my 1st impression was kin hell that's loud on tick over want one for my car as its still the best value for money imo as far as 4x4 gear kits go all of the alternatives are considerably more money to buy

Plus Romain's an Italian and I have to keep it in the family

Wieso von ein bärner?

Du bisch von Basel...het dort viel Cosworth fan?

 

My father in law is going through buying a kit at the moment.
either getting oppliger to recon his box or buying the kit and getting gearbox man to build up.

Group buy been mentioned any more?? Ł1500 sounds good to me.

 

which gear kit would be better the Bara or the oppliger?

 

do you also have a 6 speed version or is it only R&D that make the
6 speed kits??

 

Does anyone have one in there car? Can you change gaer whitout clutch?

 

you need a dogbox to change without a clutch . the one we are talking about is just a big tooth kit .

 

Ah ok thanks. Are these kits good? Does anyone use it here in a big bhp car?

 

Got around 500hp and Oppliger Semi.-Cut kit works fine for me

That spacer on the picture, where does that go? I have seen a picture on ebay with a black gearbox with a thick alloy spacer in the middle, but i can't understand how you can fit it without making other mods?
