X-Trac transmissions
Is there anyone who has some experience with x-trac transmissions?
It looks like they are used in a lot of GT sportscars.

Geoff, only couple of things I can tell you is that they are big. Their premises near to me in Reading are pretty impressive - large and modern. You
don't get there by supplying duff product. Also they have supplied some of the top rally teams over the years.
Cheers, Pewe.

They do most things transmition related. From F1, WRC, WTCC, BTCC, and stuff like helecopters etc.
You after anthing specific?
The do, do the odd one off parts (like gearbox mainshafts etc) but think there may be a slight cost implication

Everything I've seen from them is really expensive. I'm sure it's very high quality, but still...

What do you need to know?
They're as simple as any other racing dog box. 
Cheers,
Syd.

They use quite different names than quaife do. So to me it's not completely clear what they are all used for. I understand the use of most of
them.
I imagined the prices would be very high but until now I haven't contacted them.
