Right, just want to know whats about for about 3k, i know about dpe boxes but not sure on others.

Needs to be good for around 500bhp, rthinking of the box spadge had which was a dpe. Costs around £2500 i think.

So whats available then?

cheers
Benn
p.s I think ive asked this before but cant find it (well couldnt be bothered )

Fiecos Dan

for that your best option would be a big tooth quaife box,

I thought they were over 3k?

RANJ

i think you will need to spend a bit more then 3k, mate

Fiecos Dan

wen i last looked, i think around £2750+ vat for the kit,

best ask bearnie gearboxman.

i run a r+d dog box, which is miles better on full go gear change, as use no clutch, but round town abit of a pig, and very noisie in and out of car.

or also try someone like A1 steve scott as he does get in 2nd hand units for around 1300-1500 for a good big tooth box.

Thats a bit over the top for a escort diesel van aint it Benn?

and what about "fixit".....there helical if im not wrong....so not a lot of noise...if that counts..and capable of lots of bhp...

Benn,
You have to realise that the prices of either the Quaife or Fixit kit (see my website under "transmission" ) are for the gear-kit ONLY and you would have to add £400 to £800 for fitting (depending on whether you had the gearkit as it comes or shot-peened and polished).

You're probably looking at the best part of £4k for either of the above items fitted in the car...

Benn, Ive got the 2nd/3rd straight cut gear option of the DPE box and its fooking pukka If your spending £3k you should be able to pick up every gear straight cut, except 5th iirc...

Give Pete Doughty @ DPE a call on 01159 262 073 and tell him Steve Fletcher with the Esc Cos sent ya

Paul Eggleton

Steve, have you been giving your dpe box a lot of stick? is it surviving and exactly how much power are you running(i know it says 400 in sig ).

Thanks
