What about gearbox mods / upgrades?

 

Going from a standard A+ to 200bhp would need some serious help surely?

 

What have you guys done to maintain reliability and driveability?

 

Obvious things like SC gears, RTS clutch, pinion bearing housing ... what else?

 

Now anyone who has ever stripped a Mini gearbox will see that the layshaft has tapered wear marks in line with both bearings, this is caused by the shafts bending under load, mine don't bend as much not even close to any other "full race" layshaft, there is no other layshaft on the market that comes close to mine in strength, reliability and stiffness this results in lower losses and more power to the wheels :)

Please can you let me know when I am going to receive the "Rose jointed on car adjustable HD tie bars and the Rose jointed Heavy duty on-car adjustable bottom arms (Pair) - with one piece rubber fully enclosed boot" that I paid for quiet some time ago and am still outstanding?  I've emailed you and PM'd you lots of times now but have not heard back from you.

Think you may have posted on the wrong section. This is about a high hp turbo spec engine requirement. The traders section may be more appropriate to chase up an order.

The layshaft is £45 and the case mods are £25 and it will fit most if not all cases but you would need an A+ laygear to suit
