Quaife's close ratio, synchromesh, motorsport gearkits are the entry-level transmission upgrade for production based cars. This kit features 'straight-cut' (or 'spur') tooth profiles where each tooth is machined at an angle straight across the gear, enabling torque loads to be transmitted at right angles to the main gearbox bearings. This has the potential to increase gearbox durability and reduces parasitic transmission power losses to a minimum, meaning more engine power is delivered to the car's driven wheels. As a consequence of the change in tooth profile, there is a significant increase in transmission noise which is the reason they are not used in road cars.

Standard production car gear ratios are frequently designed as a compromise between fuel economy, noise and motorway cruising and are often unsuited to circuit, rally or trackday use. Quaife gearkits also feature close ratio gears, enabling drivers to easily keep the engine operating in its power band, with minimal rev drops between gearshifts. On highly tuned, high revving engines, this greatly improves vehicle performance.

This Quaife Ford Type 9 5-speed clubman synchromesh gear kit is an upgrade for the standard Ford Type 9 gearbox and has the following features:

  • Needle roller bearings support free running gears
  • Retains original Ford mainshaft
  • Straight cut, close ratio gears
  • Layshaft assembled using separate gears
  • Choice of input shaft lengths (4 cylinder or V6)
