...been thinkin....for the experts only of course..which we ALL are

Say i just ran a T38 for a solid 440bhp on greys with anti lag...but added a sequential gearbox.....Would this be better than a fixit kit and 630bhp no anti lag?

 

Better on track, HORRIBLE on road.

 

Thats that done and dusted then

Fixit kit it is then Phil

 

...explain for the dumb among us please Gay boy....

PS me and your Jen had phone sex earlier

 

Because dog engagement gearboxes (if that is the sort of sequential you are thinking of), don't like changing gear unless under load. They are also invariably straight cut, which is MEGA noisey and it just becomes very tiring.

The alternative is the Reland Skyline conversion, which uses an OS Giken sequential box, which is has helical gears. Supposed to be better in operation for "normal" driving, but the set-up still needs proving in Martin's car first .

The "best" bet would be swapping gearboxes over - one for road and one for track....

She told me, as I left my phone at home .

 

...and yopu never called me Dont be jealous

You got the original orange indicators by any chance the bumper ones and repeaters in wing?

 

No, they look . Suits you sir .

 

sequential boxes are hard/expensive too find for a cossie,,, and even more expensive if it has an overdriven top

 

...i want them as clear is more gay particualary as my car being a replica should be orange lens....since the late 90's its all turned very homo.

 

Spot on as usual

My fixits built now Mike by the way

 

get a stacks dash

 

The OSG box takes getting used to and you have to alter your driving style esp anticipating downchanges for junctions etc. Around town its harder work than a syncromesh but once on open roads the ease of use outweighs the downsides. The speed of the shift is incredible.

 

What sequential boxes are out there that are able to handle high BHP? 500 - 600+?

Thanks

 

Jamie,
The only choice really is the Skyline set up that Martin has in his car .

 

Converted ffd 6 sp, xtrac and quaife AFAIK....the FFD and xtrac boxes are a lovely change.....

 

How much does that little lot cost though lol Might just stick with FIXIT at leat when a fixit kit becomes available

 

Sequential all the way for me I'm affraid even for road use.

Straight cut isn't that bad for me in higher gears.

At the end of the day its a sports car not a luxary tourer

 

Bosh man what car is it for?

 

Only one long lasting solution for rwd Cossie that is used mainly as a Road car.
7years/35k & cant break-it even with Mega Horses, so ring up Brom. If its 4x4 a visit to Martin makes sense.
