Wow!
Torque capacity rating? I'm guessing in excess of a 1000lb ft?

If you can't find 'em, grind 'em [the gears, that is]
Not that you'll have that issue with a sequential

I have been manic with work so not had chance to do anything on the car myself.
In the mean time Stew and Ian have done a fair bit. The clutch hub for the carnetic clutch I use I bought a replacement to match the new larger input shaft on the new box. Unfortunatly because the input shaft is machined to mount to an impreza flywheel but isnt an impreza diameter we have a minor issue with the clutch hub.
Have a solution but only 80% happy with it. Talking with carbonetic about them possibly making a one off for it, either that or I have to change to a different make of clutch but the current one has been very good and so when something works I try not to change. This is delaying box fitment.
In the meantime another gearbox has been fitted to ensure the engine is in the correct position and Stew has cracked on with making the new manifolds for the new turbos
