No, they're normally aspirated ones (rated at 275bhp).

The one that Quaife do for the 2wd Cossie (with sensible ratios - i.e. not 1:1 top) are £6,250 + VAT for the six speed heavy duty RWD sequential gearbox.

You then need a bell housing for that, at approx £500 .

Dom,
It has nothing to do with being cheap, it has to do with availability .

marco polo,

ive got a 'h' pattern dogger !!!


but it cant be converted

RWD_cossie_wil,

Mike Rainbird,
No, they're normally aspirated ones (rated at 275bhp).

when it comes to power handling capabilites quaife tend to be very reserved when the quote - all to do with warranties and all that

if you actually take one of their boxes and take it to distruction then you will be surprised at how higher (in the hp stakes) they will go


but then we all know its torque that kills transmissions , and guess what ?

quiafe will not quote a torque rating on their products

now from my experiance of using their products , the sequential will be fine for approx 400hp/400ftlb !!! maybe even more

but , its a motorsport produst when all said and done , and we all know theirs now guarantees in motorsport !!
