Default 5spd Getrag box wnats the VALUE??

Its on ebay at the moment, just wondering what its worth as I may need to upgrade once my engine is complete. Engine will be circa 500-550bhp.
Also what do I need to know about the box, im assuming it maybe noisy?

Euan runs a Getrag box they come out of old jags, and user an adaptor plate to mate up to the cossie bellhousing. From what he has told me it drives real nice with a gearchange similar to his old M3. It may well be the same person selling that box as he got his from as the guy is up that way.

thats the same box as I have.

1-3 are slightly shorter than the T5 with 4th being 1:1 and 5th slighty longer.

Good box and seems to cope with the power well.

I paid 500 quid for my box with a recon.

You need the front of the prop and the gear selector too.
