  1. I totally agree and this was my beef with them when they first released the sequential. I spent many hours on the phone with PPG when I was originally going to go down the 5 speed dog box path and they said themselves the issue is with the 5 speed box IS the housing.... then they make a sequential out of the 5 speed box. WTF? Got the OS88 in the car and removed it after 300 kms. Didn’t like it. At the time (mid 2017) I don’t think the samsonas box was a thing yet so it was the PPG, OS88, Holinger, Albins that you needed to take a grinder to the car or back to a 5 speed which is just NOT an option. IF I was doing it today, I think the Samsonas box would be the pick. Suck up the scaffolding gear lever (surely they can do better here) and cop the noise on the chin. With cranky diffs, pumps and whatever else is going on, what’s a bit of extra “character”? It looks like PPG have released a billet housing now. Unsure if it’s any bigger or it’s just shinier. I have had NO problems with the PPG box, it’s been great. Put all the trim around the shifter and it’s pretty damn quiet, shifts well, no oil spewing out the gear case or any other dumb problems. An issue is with these types of boxes (sequentials in general) that guys want to run 1500 whp through them and then wonder why they break. If you run a reasonable amount of power through them <600 Wkw (I use the term reasonable loosely here because 600 wkw is a crazy amount of power) there shouldn’t be any issues.
  2. OS88 is a very old and dated design. No gear position sensor, just a switch for the gear display, no strain gauge either. Quite agricultural as well. Mine lasted 300 kms and then pulled out and moved on for a PPG sequential, no comparison between them.
  3. Oh right. By all accounts they look the same. 🤣 Can take some decent photos of the Neo one tonight and post them up here.
  4. I have one but I need it. I can’t help you. Lol Sorry.
  5. It’s needed. Spent too long cleaning it. Sorry 🤪
  6. Have you fixed your exhaust that’s way too small yet?
  7. Let us know what you manage to do the dry sump setup for 👍
  8. Anyone received their shafts yet? Any issues?
  9. What’s the options you’re looking at?
  10. Checked the for sale section of SAU?
  11. $1800 you took it off my hands for lol
  12. Makes the N1 block you had 12 years ago sound cheap now. 🤣
  13. Another round of Don Mega/NASA. FFS here we go listening to this toilet water again.
  14. What gearbox? That’ll be the next thing you’ll be picking up off the road.
  15. Be better off making a heat shield IMO. Don’t worry about the expensive paint job, it does sweet FA.
  16. Put the head up for $50 or a case of piss. Someone will buy it.
  17. Are we playing “guess the grind” or are you gonna tell us?
