I have been looking at possibly fitting a Porsche G50/01 into my Tornado TS40 and I was wondering if anyone has already done this as it looks like you have to do a few chassis modifications to make it work and I would appreciate any feedback on this.
The reason I'm looking at doing this is I have managed to break my UN1 gearbox again, and this one was fitted with my own one piece shaft that I had made up, I made a decision not change the first or second gear ratio's like the Quaife version, only to find out that the second gear syncro's are quite weak and consequently these broke off and ended up in the second gears stripping them.
So as far as I see it I only have a few options open to me, I do not have an unlimited budget so the likes of the ZFQ / RBT are out of the question as to costly.
1) - Buy a Quaife one piece shaft and fit this but still have a slow gear change and weak fifth gear.
2) - Upgrade to a Porsche G50/01.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
