Well Longboard since you're here how's your trans and ATB diff(Quaife or OBX???) holding up?

When are you getting a dog box made up for your MINI's trans?

Where can you just get straight cut gears without dog engagement? Like our gears and gear ratios but just straight cut (is this possible?)

By the way, I've heard dog engagement will last about 2000 miles. Does this sound about right?

I read through the thread and maybe I missed it, but has anyone completed the Focus SVT final drive gear swap?

Not to my knowledge...but Quaife DOES make a gear set for our S's...with 3 ratio options...it is pricy though...

This is the only place to get them in the US to my knowledge...otherwise it will have to come from...England...if I remember right...
