It's not worth putting that much money into a contour. Just in case your wondering, the pic is of a straight cut, dog engagement gearset for the mtx75. It costs £2,575.00!!! You can get your choice of ratio's including up to a 4.857 final ring. My race machine will just have to just have to fair with what it alredy has. But if I was rediculously wealthy...

PLus you'll want the lsd of couse. Extra gears because the dog engaugement part wears out pretty fast. Also diffetent ratios. Don't forget about that shift tower I meantioned earlier. Add in their magical gear lube and your half way to a mortgage.
 
Okay. I see. He will definitly want a gearbox to handle all that power. I'm not sure if anyone has seen the internals if the stock gearbox, but the syncromesh part is a little on the lacking side. Not too much though. Quaife also make a syncromesh gear kit. I'm pretty sure that it uses the oe syncro parts though.
 
I'm missing the shift tower... anyone have a link?

[but very cool, I knew all about the quaife gear set but had never dug for the information, mostly because of the price]
