quaife straight cut box into the nova

imo the f28 is the undesputed strongest box out there (gear wise) but the synchros/bearings can be prone to failing from what i can gather, get a good one or somehow obtain the new parts and your laughing

i know its probs going to be sooner or later that the quaife will lie down on the job, maybe not (touch wood) but ill see lol

as others have said its not the outright power that kills boxes its more down to the levels of torque they are subjected to and in this case will be more than 200ft lbs, or i hope so, if it dont make over that ill be asking myself some serious questions lol

It's down to how you drive. Simple as that.

Kind of a no brainer Ben but I highly doubt Matt is building this to take it easy in so I guess it I'll be track used regularly if he has the time

Good good, cars need to be used, and with such huge spec this one deffo does.

well the pedal box arrived so got it put together and bolted on, had to cut abit of length off the master cylinders but all fits ok, its still very tight for boost pipe to tb but at least it fits now, just need to get hoses made up

i decided to go with a compbrake one after reading a few good reports on them and it was abit cheaper than a hockly one, only thing is the m/c's arent branded so i dont know what make they are etc but im sure they will be fine as they seem to sell loads of them

pmd about the hoses too
