6 speed FFD HB release gearbox, just fully rebuilt £8,500

and as far as 1000+ hp to need 7 gears???

"1994 Homolagated Full Group A Escort Cosworth Tarmac spec.

Montune Engine. 7 speed FFD box. 9" rear diff. 7.5" front diff. 355mm front discs.

315mm rear discs. New bag tank. New FIA seats & belts. Tarmac use only.

Immaculate condition. Never bent or damaged. Immaculate condition."

Certainly doesn't have 1000 hp's

and finally

a recently debuted ferrari

The FX will have a carbon-fiber monocoque, a normally aspirated 6.0-liter V-12 with almost 650 bhp, an F1-style 7-speed gearbox, driver-adjustable traction control and carbon-fiber brakes. Maximum speed should be over 207 mph.



stop being a f*cking idiot PLEASE, there is a difference between a STREET TRANNY and one custom built for rallying, do you like to hear the mechanical whir of the gears over the sound of your engine at speed? let alone THIS IS BUILT LIKE THIS, not A ****ING ADDON GEAR CLUSTER. AND ON THAT NOTE there doesnt need to be 1000hp because the TRANSMISSION IS DESIGNED FOR RACING AND DOESNT KEEP OVERDRIVE SPECS IN MIND WHILE BUILDING IT

I NEVER ONCE SAID THERE IS NO 7 speed tranny i simply told you your boy didnt have one and there is no such kit to swap more clusters in a stock f*cking transmission case (<----- making it still essentially the same transmission) so i dont see what BRINGING a rally racing transmission up and a ferrari transmission up has to do with the fact that you dont know what your talking about? THERE IS NO ADD ON 7 speed manual,

and aside from the new bmw AUTO 7 spd and the new ferrari 7 spd there is NONE OTHER ON THE STREET (that i know of) unless you like to drive a race car on the road and or like the sound of mechanical whirling over the sound of your motor. this has no place in this arguement considering i didnt straight out say there is NO 7 spd manual.

please stop this is getting out of hand, i dont know why i try to argue with you anymore... at first it was to teach you sumthing now its merely turned to the sake of argueing for the sake of argueing. it was fun but now since the facts have been laid out, ill let anyone reading this forum decide FOR THEMSELVES instead of trying to prove it to you, youve already made up your mind, im NOT going to change it OBVIOUSLY.

if my mustang was running i would try to show you for myself its impossible but it isnt running.
