Does that help at all? I know its not specifically for cosworths, but gets you in the ballpark

 

for what car?

 

my 3 door

 

quaife do one for around 8k, elite transmissions do one but not totally sure on price, elite transmissions i would go for, quaife dont seem that good, very hard work

 

mmmmm might have to make some calls in morning

 

elite is all we use

 

Who is "we" ?

 

this guys got a sadev 6 speed sequential in his 3door.

Elite Tranmissions were very impressive when the refurbed my T5 box

 

arhhh Dan lives near my mum in Haverhill

used to see him when i had my cossie in haverhill

 

I would say xtrac but thats gonna run you hellish amounts of money.

 

Drenth, Tractive, Sellholm, Quaife or Elite all make good gearboxes, some take power better than others but you don't need to fit a 10k gearbox on a 400-450hp engine

I know of someone who may be orgainzing a bulk order of the Quaife 60g box which from what I'm told it a very good piece of kit.

Prices will be very good

 

Are you building a world car or a fast road/track car lol

 

that 60g is a very good box, and quite a conservative rating on it, as er most quaife stuff.

 

going to be a track car maybe a competition car!

 

I heard recently that used Hollinger boxes from the Aussie V8's are getting sold after so many competition miles, think they are in region of $10000AUD which is about 5000GBP just now.

If they can hold up to the Aussie V8 racing they will be fine in a Cossie..... fuck knows how you find them though.

 

Quaife are testing an uprated version of 60G box called 69G S/C 6SP sequential dog box with choice of ratios should be good for around 700bhp am expecting mine after christmas

 

You will be lucky if it is ready that soon, spoke to Quaife Friday.
Can also be used with geartronics paddle shift (60g can use it also).

double post..

 

I didnt say when after christmas, but knowing quaife it may be some time. i spoke to them around two weeks ago and they said available early next year but i wont hold my breath!

 

I do a bit on a mk 2 with a 60G, we looked at all the options mentioned and even with my reservations about quaife, the box is fantastic, lovely change and of course you can use a off the shelf bell housing and for us meant we could take the original type 9 as a spare.....

Drenth and Selholm MPG box are essentially the same unit....tractive is fantastic but very pricey....

No experience with the elite.

Apart from the lousey customer service, the quaife option does make sense....

 

more like next millenium

 

I spoke to Bara and he quoted me Ł6000-Ł6500

After speaking to a few people was told if using the car on the road at all they are not the greatest things to live with so im now going the Tremec route, should be here in about 2 weeks

 

ians hit the nail on the head here,quaife one would make sense if there sales were any good,elite were an even bigger waste of time and the product does have a few development issues[pig has been doing r and d for them]i bought the tractive one,well pleased so far

 

Jesus H Christ that's cheap for a T-9 replacement.

no way of that fitting a t5 box??????

 

You do get what you pay for at this level ,if youre just ticking the bullshit box by fitting a sequential gearbox then your stuck with agricultural units like these ,the quaife boxes still use a Male/female dog gear that makes re-builds expensive as its the gear that wears out,the Elite at least uses Dog rings and has the benefit of "Drop Gears" to give final drive ratios without the need to change your diff but the change is slow and then you need a bell housing etc...
If youre thinking of competition you must also remember most championships take a dim view of sequential boxes as a retro fit and boost you up at least 1 class if they let you use one at all !

 

i have one which came from stagedquaife and they took nearly a year to make the dame thing and i have fitted it in my car about a year or so ago but have not used it . I am thinking of selling it but it also comes with brand new triple plate clutch and hyd thrust modded quaife bell housing and cnc gearbox mount and prop and shift indicator and brand new 4x4 starter as 2wd dont fit . Its all there and ready to fit and use and when i say it aint been use i shit you not the engine has not run while being joint to this box i want 7500 grand for the lot and the lot is new . I have had a change of plan and change of direction. If your interested mail me

 

and i dont know what happened to my spelling on the first line of the above. Lol.

 

i went out in a rs500 last friday, its 550hp and 100hp nos, it uses a glebe h pattern dogbox, with frozen and "hyper polished" gears, he gives it greif all the time and its been really good apparently i think he said it was about 3k, maybe worth thinking about for a proper box

 

dnt know if this helps u at all but i know geoff page racing had 1 for sale last week for 4.5 grand or sumthing like that.

The 60g has turned a corner for Quaife in terms of quality and functionality, they've also in the last couple of weeks taken delivery of a latest generation gear hobbing machine too, that should see further improvements, particularly in gear geometry elements which in my experience have somewhat blighted them in the past.
