Absolute Pace GT 40

[Joe Schembri]

Hi, I have a new Absolute Pace GT40 built in Australia and look forward to reading through the forums to get as much info on do's and don'ts as possible.
I am on the look out for a Graziano transaxle if anybody has or knows were one is for sale.
Thanks Joe

Very nice Joe! I think yours is the first Absolute Pace I’ve seen...

 

[Troy]

What state are you in Joe?

 

[Joe Schembri]

I am in Queensland Australia.

 

[Troy]

No problems. Let me now if you need any info on the Pace 40 build.

 

[Joe Schembri]

Hi Troy,

Do you have one yourself?
I am about to pick mine up from Absolute Pace very soon, eager to get it assembled asap. Only part that I am short is the Graziano gearbox.

Contact member JBURER. He is John at HCF autosport. Tons of info on the forum if you search either or of that info. They even have a new design paddle shifter available. Never heard a bad word about them give them a try.

Regards Brian

Hi Joe. Yes, Mine is the Ferrari powered one.

Plenty of gearbox options, including Graziano boxes designed for other cars. I had a Ferrari 360 standard 6spd gearbox just laying around which is made by Graziano, another avenue to explore...

Hi Troy,
Have you got any more info on that gearbox? Do you still have it? (laying around)

 

[Troy]

No, don't have it any more. They're not too hard to find, although most have the hydraulic F1 shift system attached.

The gated 6spd mechanism swaps easily, as they are the same gearbox. The big black crash structure on the rear of the box can be machined off, to shorten it by around 100mm+

Great box, and strong too.

Ok cool. I have mine at home now. Still waiting on some of the finishing kit, but getting there.

Close but slightly different by the looks of things.

 

[Ryan L]

i wonder would the R8 shifter assembly bolt onto the 360 box
