Are these boxes ok for a road car? What rear diff is needed for this? Will I be able to put my dccd rear section on this?

stira2 23 May 2017 07:35 AM

Also what ratios does it have?

Depends on how you find the noise. YouTube a few vids.

I had one in my old car absolutely loved it.


Is it 1-5 straight cut or does it have a normal 5th?

stira2 23 May 2017 07:52 AM

It's not really a daily, more just a weekend car so I could put up with the noise.... but the car is an STI ra and don't really want to lose the short ratios and dccd.

Ciaran 23 May 2017 07:56 AM

It's standard UK ratios
Can be used in a road car as 5th is normal standard 5th gear
DCCD tail section could indeed be married to the box

Arch 23 May 2017 08:34 AM

Rear diff may need to be changed Ciaran as all DCCD boxes use 1:1 drop gears

stira2 23 May 2017 10:23 AM

How different are the ratios in a UK? How does the ppg compare in strength to the sti 6 speed?

Ciaran 30 May 2017 08:30 PM

Mixed reviews on strength.
Some say similar some say less.
I personally never had an issue at 420bhp on a 2.1.

Anyway open to sensible offers

RA Dunk 31 May 2017 05:43 AM

Been running one for a for years at around 450(ish) without issue, I actually enjoy the noise. :cool:

stira2 31 May 2017 07:11 PM

How often do they need rebuilt? What rear diff would I need for this box? And am I right in saying my dccd rear section will just bolt onto the back of it?

No more than any normal box TBH.
You need a 3.54 rear diff to match this box

stira2 01 June 2017 05:17 PM

Didn't notice you said you had the matching rear diff if required... what's your absolute best price on this?

PM me an offer

Mad Hammer 04 June 2017 11:05 AM

I ran and raced the exactly same at 500/500 for a couple years with no issues. At that level the weight saving over a six speed is certainly worth it.

Ciaran 05 June 2017 09:40 AM

Okay reduced £1300 delivered

Ciaran 06 June 2017 06:06 PM

I need rid off this ASAP offers
