Default True Sequential Gearbox???

I currently have a 6 speed PPG dogbox and KAPS sequential shifter. However I'm fed up with the KAPS thing, we cannot adjust it acurately and shifts wrong gear every now and then, I cannot risk my AXIS stage 5 long block any more, it already revved up tp 10.000 rpm a couple of times due to wrong down shifts.

I am looking for a true sequential gearbox.

Dont tell me Prodrive, and definetely dont tell me KAPS, I hate that brand.

Hollinger does not make any, I already asked.

Any other clues???

AFAIK the Prodrive boxes are H pattern, its the hydraulics that do the clever stuff.

Paul tried one of the shifter kits, but it was unreliable with a dog box.

Roger Clark offer a sequential set up, but if you can wait, then another well known gear kit manufacturer are just completing testing on a full 6 speed sequential box.

Don't expect any change out of £10-12k though.

Now all the running gear is housed in a full blown group 4 shell and its a work of art

Breaks boxes occasionally though, 260-280 bhp has been mentioned not bad for a home built N/A 2ltr

I've emailed modena and waiting for reply.

Elite did reply and said it can handle 610nm, waiting the price though.

Does anybody actually used or uses this gearbox?
It's the only one I found until now, the torque limit is a little problem but we can detune the car a bit, since it's going to be faster due to faster gearchanges and use of the paddle shift.

I need some feedback though....
