Some pictures of said box. XTrac UK came back and seem willing enough to supply what they have in the way of documentation dependent on part numbers, which everything has except for the casing!

Fun little project for the owner..........not

I cant see the wigwam for the gooses bridle.

Looks like fun to me.

Or buy one ready to bolt in for 7500 euro's.

Ouch!!

At least this one is passive, no need to work out the electrics. With the right documents I'm sure (maybe hope is the better term) there will be someone in the west that will be willing to tackle it.

Fuck....what a piece of art that is....can only dream of owning that!

 

[DOUGMO]

the box is cheap at $7500eu, I bet they gouge the shit out of you on the transfer which is most likely electronic?

Tried your luck in Un Zud?...evoparts.co.nz

Thanks Dean, will be having a sniff around there for sure. Need to find a top gearchange turret and lot of the in-car to 'box linkages.

Xtrac have got back with not much. They only have the same drawing he already has. They reckon they sold out all their old parts to Wevers Sport in Holland, so they probably smoked it all.

Someone that knows more than me reckons the dogs are worn too. Guess we be looking for someone to knock them up.

I had dogs recut on my old honda by a guy in welshpool. That fixed them.
I now use the clutch on everything I drive

Maybe try Dasha? He has one out of his Advan Grp A E3.

3000gt run a getrag

you can still get a box from Hollinger by special order, price is insane

there is a ralliart dog box on Brindabella for sale with the mag case and big drive shafts to suit the green hubs

George is bang on the money

I contacted Holinger regarding the HMLGearbox and other available options for evo 3

This is a reply i got from Holinger's Kilshyth office,


Currently we support the old gearboxes that are running.

We have been approached by quite a number of people about this gearbox and we are re-considering manufacturing a small batch. Unfortunately this gearbox has not been produced for quite a number of years and we would have to produce a batch of about 5 -10 off to be worthwhile.

It is also a complicated gearbox with many parts and this means that the pricing would be quite high and delivery quite long.

Roughly speaking the gearbox will be approx. $28,000 AUD with around 6-8 month delivery from order if we receive enough interest.

If this is still something of interest please let us know and we can begin making a small batch of these gearboxes.

We have nothing else for the EVO-3. With the engine being back to front it is a bit complicated.

These boxes actually sold for $70k in the mid 90’s at Ralliart, so you can see why they’re so expensive! They were only designed to be Full GRP A WRC style things. Not for privateers even then!
