John, FWIW, you can clutch-less a shift a h pattern Hewland MK box ( Hewland also offer sequential on the old FT200 design ), the Quaife gear set for the 2000E box was a little more agricultural so I never really tried to clutch-less shift it ( not being critical here, its a good thing because you can't change the gears in situ like you would a trans axle) ![]() its light a 40 Lbs ( under 20 kilos) I think they have it worked up for the ford bell housing as well but not 100% sure here. you end up with a compact 4, or five speed box using Hewland MK gears so you have lots of choices, shifter can be configured for h-pattern or sequential. The one I like is collaboration between TRE ( taylor not toyota) & elite, it uses Staffs, Hewland case/guts and Elite ( not lotus) parts to convert to inline. Lots of food for thought arising from a question about who makes the thingiesīy the way this is a neutral emoticon which raises the question about finding that so special gear with a sequential box where my H shaped gear change has neutrals everywhere I can imagine that back in the day the drivers swooned over that facility. The Quaife QKE38Z 5-speed sequential gearkit retains the stock IB5 clutch, differential, driveshafts and mounts for a simple and affordable assembly. road or competition isn't the possibility to change, let's say from 4th down to 2nd without having to go through 3rd a big plus? ![]() I don't think so with such basic designs like the Quaiffe I think that the attraction for me in the Quaiffe sequential box was that it had 5 or 6 gears!īut I ask this question what are the advantages of a sequential change?ĭoes sequential automatically mean "clutch-less" gear changes i.e. Ultra fast sequential gearshift with straight cut or helical close-ratio gears Retains stock EP3/FN2/DC5 clutch, diff, driveshafts and mounts Optional LED digital gear position indicator available Quaife ATB for standard driveshafts (QDF9U) PLEASE NOTE: The Quaife QKE8J package includes the new transmission housing, gear lever and cable. The old Ford/Lotus 4 speed gearbox really set the standard way back when & even today is still pretty damned good as fat as smoothness & positivity in gear change. Strangely I was only thinking this afternoon, why bother? In any case I don't think that it would fit in the Elan's backbone without modifications. It being some time ago I don't remember properly but I think that the barrel selector was in the gearbox casing & the back & forth motion gear lever slotted into it the other box of bits (whatever it did) was fastened to the side of the casing. Yes it definitely utilized a barrel selector or what I would describe as a cylindrical cam, not being so up to speed on the technology. The "box" you saw might house the barrel and its end of the selector forks. It could be that Quaife is using a barrel selector system as was common in F1 a few years ago (maybe still is).
