Interesting pictures, although their 5 speed offering is a Toyota Supra box. I have one in my Mk2. Sure, it's got 5 gears but it's not a particularly nice box.
The T5 box in my roadster on the other hand is quite nice.

Yes, interesting. I'm one of those often looking for 5th gear, particularly as I also drive a 5 speed MX-5. I had seen this and thought of the Supra box bit would not go without trying one.abowie wrote: ↑Wed Jun 18, 2025 5:16 amhttps://www.facebook.com/hashtag/fivespeedgearbox

Unfortunately, as far as I'm aware, the T5 is unobtainium material

My T5 came via Elite about 5 years ago and it has been excellent.
Although it can feel a bit ‘agricultural’ when cold but once warmed up it is far better than the Getrag it replaced
