Re: Transaxle strength

I have had the box for 4 years, straight cut gears and ATB LSD. Slightly longer than the ZF, but still fits in the GTD nicely. I've been putting over 500bhp through it with no problems.
It feels totally bombproof and the change is very positive. Expensive.....yes, but easier to live with than a Hewland (need to lower the engine about 4" and dry sump it). Easier to work on and obtain parts for than a ZF, and a good range of gear ratio and final drive options. Plus Quaife factory is 25 minutes away!
