It would be beautiful if it was a drop-in application.

I've been waiting on my Quaife sequential for quite a while now, turns out the available bell housing for S2k is for adapting S2k engine in cars like Lotus 7 etc and won't actually work in S2k. Still waiting to hear back from Quaife on when and if the S2k 60G gearbox will be ready.

this one doesn't work in a s2k?

I'm interested, but I have high horsepower needs and probably would prefer straight cut.
They would be straight cut gears. and it would be a set you could install into your stock transmission housing.

Krazik, Quaife has the DMRR bellhousing and apparently it won't work in the S2k even though the bolt spacing/pattern is correct to go from F20/22 to the Quaife 60G. I don't have the exact reasons, just that it won't work and that has been a big hold up. It's coming up on a year now that I've been waiting for this box.

I'm not sure how far along M-Factory is with the project, I just know when I spoke with them it was something they were seriously considering. I'm sure it won't be a problem to hit the 10 piece quantity to get the project rolling at the 4k price point. If the Quaife doesn't happen this is definitely what I'll be looking into.

Considering I've gone through two transmissions in two seasons, call me interested if this can withstand my shifting better or at least have replaceable/rebuildable gears.

Talked with Len at Quaife today and he said it wont be anytime soon if ever.

I would be very interested if M factory could make it happen.
