Will basically be $20k landed here. I bought boxes in the UK and had them shipped to be done rather than sending from here. One is getting a quaife diff and AWD while the other is FWD with a gripper. They are complete with shifter assembly and digital gear position displays.

That's really not too bad. ?

@VolvoMike i can’t wait for you to fit the FWD Quaife box to my 850r wagon. The boost will really match the ratios.

What's the build specs? Drag car? Tell me there's gonna be an 850 wagon at WTAC?

    Would be a massive waste on a wagon @au_850r... The sequentials are destined for awesome sedans.

      Sedans will never look as good. ?

        Correct... sedans look better!! and go faster.

          Haha way to go and yet your first comment in this thread far from constructive discussion. ?

            @VolvoMike When your ready, do make a build thread. I'd be interested to see the rest of the car if your going to the expense level of sequential box...

            I thought the 850r dude was your buddy chiming in. Haha

                    By your own measuring I’ve been lurking for 12 months. What’s this so called usual wagon v sedan bullshit?

                    I sold @au_850r his wagon, built the engine and performed the manual conversion. I organized the respray and even put it on ebay while he owned it.... I honestly don't have time to do build threads and my own 850R is a bare shell after a respray 18 months ago.

                    The track car getting the sequential is getting a built S60R 2.5 engine with rods and pistons, hi flowed K24, Do88 radiator, intercooler & RIP kit, COP & dual VVT with a Vast 4.4 and twin plate clutch. It will run KW V3 coilovers with S60R 330mm brembo conversion on the front.

                      @VolvoMike I was of the understanding you'd need a aftermarket ecu and e-throttle for torque control, for shifting to realise a sequential boxs' capabilities?

                        Will use the multi purpose output in the ECU for flat shifting.

                        On another note, does anyone have an old 850R clutch pressure plate? I'm needing one just for the test of the M66 conversion. Or, if someone has a brand new clutch (Volvo 272218) and is looking at doing the conversion, I'll supply a brand new clutch disc they can use in the M66 for loaning me a pressure plate.

                        Yeah, so one of the things that is great about this forum is that it avoids the dumbest parts of FB - including the sedan vs wagon crap.
