Is it easy to get the hang of if you're going from a H gearbox to a sequential?

[pknivett]

@HyperCam3Vids It's a doddle. At first it feels a bit odd, but after a while, the struggle is going back to an 'h'-pattern box!

nice whine from the dog cut gears me likey

[pknivett]

@cunt3d The whine is from the straight cut gears, you get the same noise from a Quaife H-pattern gearkit with 'Spur' gears.

Hes probablly using the clutch to prolong the life of the transmission since they can get pricey

@ztunelover hey send me an email i work for a performance company i can help you out with some parts

[macagnoful]

@ztunelover your better off buying a R35 then lol unless we can integrate an R35 drivetrain on our chassis that would be insane! The IGTC-4 is a 6spd sequential gearbox. Here is a video of an S15 with that transmission with only 450hp keeping up with 700hp vipers.

[ztunelover]

@macagnoful I want either a 5 or 6 speed. The one you mention is a 4 speed is it not? And note I mentioned transaxle not transission. So I expect it to have a built in diff. If I can get a transaxle in the back and run a torque tube that would greatly improve the weight and balance of the car.

@ztunelover

i am also in the interest for a sequential gearbox myself! i have an sr20det and i know the Hewland IGTC-4 sequential box is good for our application, just need to get a rear differential also.

the whine sounds shit what the fuck dog box is this

[Trondheim18]

How much did this cost? Do you have to use a clutch? n awesome sound

[minirampskater]

Would it fit the 1.4/1.6 focus box? pretty sure it is an IB5 aswell. or maybe it is the 1.8/2.0? cheers

[Brainwasher555]

and everytime you must to press the clutch???

I read that you don't need a clutc..only when you go and when you stop...
