ManwithSupra Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 Just got a couple of photo's from Quaife on the build of the new gearbox. Shouldn't be too long now https://fbcdn-sphotos-d-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xpf1/v/t1.0-9/10385386_792933200781325_8775439188560808343_n.jpg?oh=f892687d5a8b9007b18f9b93ea97cdfc&oe=5588C7E0&__gda__=1431010442_abd04025f0b965f77874b5fd3738d6c6 https://scontent-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xap1/v/t1.0-9/10360693_792933224114656_3638590240397662185_n.jpg?oh=76a9d9f10439490a72eda5ab0e9fc221&oe=5579C261 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bignum Posted February 26, 2015 Share Posted February 26, 2015 WOW can`t believe how small it is compared to the getrag, some more weight saving i bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManwithSupra Posted February 26, 2015 Author Share Posted February 26, 2015 WOW can`t believe how small it is compared to the getrag, some more weight saving i bet. Those pics have both the front and rear casings off, this also does not have the input shaft either, the box is similarly sized to the getrag, all you are seeing here is the center section (Like I explained the other day at the workshop on how the casings are removed). There is a weight saving of around 4kgs, not much but it is something. When you take into account the bell, casings and shifter centerline the 69G is actually 3cm longer than the bell to the shifter center line on the V160. From the Bell to prop flange its 21cm longer than the V160. The box (minus bell) is slightly slimmer than the V160 coming in at 1.3cm less on its body. Also got a text from Neil at Geartronics a short while ago the paddle shifter kit is being delivered tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
