We have a Mk6 Fiesta shell with a WRC kit. It's going be Cosworth 4 wheel drive running gear and a Cosworth motor running around 500hp. We want to use a 6 speed sequential box. I've looked at the Quaife one and quiet like them as we have a Quaife 60G in another car and it's never missed a beat.
So my question is do any of you have one and what do you think?

Thanks

Nick

 

I have recently had one in my escos it's awesome to be fair expensive but good nice fast changes etc but noisy but you can expect that

 

Any pics of the car , sounds a great build

Cheers paul

 

I run a 6 speed ffd sequential gear box. I have not used it that many times yet , but I do find it a great gear box . it was used in my old escort it was just over 600hp .the gear box is now in my mk6 fiesta its a full wrc spec car. it runs over 700hp ,we are only at the running in stage with this car.


cheers steven

 

Thanks for the info chaps.
You've confirmed what we thought and to that end the car will definitely have to have a sequential box.
We have a Mk2 escort that we put a 60G in with flat shift.
The noise it makes and the flat shift make it addictive!
If any of you know of a good 6 speed sequential to suit our project drop me a PM.

Thanks

Nick

 

I've an ffd 7 speed and it's awesome. Can't get gears quick enough.

 

Now that sounds just up my street........were can i get one for under Ł3000!

 

not on this planet double that for a gear kit and thats 5 speed

 

Not a chance lol. It only they were that price

 

Yep i know the score chaps.
Second hand ones are like hens teeth
New ones are big money
One way or another i'll be having one though!

 

Let me know if you find 2

 

Maybe a slightly cheaper option ?

Thanks for the info.

Looked at them and the Oppliger kit

To be honest there not for me.
It may me take longer to find a good second hand one or save up for a new one but I'll be having a proper designed and built 6/7 speed sequential.

 

Just contact Bara Motorsport for an FFD MS95, if they were good enough for the factory!

 

A lot of the Ford kits seem to have very short ratios. Unless you have very low power, I really cant see how the likes of a 7 speed would be of any real benefit, or unless your power band is very narrow.
Even with fast changes you dont want to spend half the race constantly shifting gear and going nowhere.

And of course the above or Oppliger are proper designed and built
