Have you checked www.xe.com and the euro exchange rates... Its not THAT much cheaper than a Quaife. Though that said how much is a Quaife again???

i like the look of the type 9 sequential shifter, me thinks an order may be placed

lusomotors reverse roughly £450 Qauife is 600 plus i think? maybe wrong. Still a good saving if it works ok that is?!

The QBE35G is £669.50 (aprox. 870eur)http://www.quaife.co.uk/product_search.cfm?searchString=QBE35G
A saving of about 300eur $-)

I too like the look of the Type 9 sequential shifter (if I didn't have seq gearbox as std!) but has anyone on here bought any of there more er complicated bits like reverse boxes or this H pattern to seq shifter.

Takes a lot of engineering...

Not dissing them just saying they haven't got them same reputation / history as Quaife.

Not that Quaife's reverse boxes are perfect from what I've heard (not personal experience).

soz bout the type 9 thing didnt relise it was in the bec section, ill carry my ass out and over to the cec section

It wasn't a dig mate I find the whole H pattern to sequential engineering fascinating. I briefly considering buying a similar unit from Japan for my S14a 200SX. IIRC it was a lot more expensive than that.

Damn good find, thanks. I'll make an enquiry over that reverse gearbox, with questions related mainly to flange/spline retention and the size of the support bearings. Considering the alternatives, tipping yet more Quaife and Westfield gearbox bits into the trash can, this might be better....

paddle shift looks nicely priced
