Why ask me ? I cant understand me either!
If there was a way to get that Van Dieman chassis or Formula Mazda Chassis to Australia I would be asking how much you want!

Not that I need another project....

If you can find one.... Get the S2 Rx8 gearbox... Much stronger but the gear ratios are not as good. (It's a Getrag from memory...)

Biggest issue on the S1 was breaking shift forks. S2 is going fine sofar :)

But I'm pulling 9k rpm gearchanges... Because 12a rules.

Wait a minute. Aisin built all or some of the boxes we are talking about? Can you get me a decent quality pic looking into the bellhousing? Curious about something.

If it's the same as the Toyota Is200 box or the s15 box? Very likely!

There is 2 variants, the Type used on the MX5/rx8 and the Larger unit used in things like Commodores.

The S2 RX8 IS NOT an Assian gearbox

Correct me if I'm wrong here... (I'm the only person actually using a second generation RX8 box in an RX2... It's a much tighter fit.., and apparently the first Non RX 7 to do it anywhere with the S1 box.)

The S1 box is now a pile of really worn parts !

Yep, bellhousing is integral to the case. That threw me the first time I tried to disassemble it.

There is 2 side bolts (one's the reverse gear shaft mount) you need to remove as well.

Yes... Reverse is in the middle of the gearbox!
