HI Dingy
make sure this box holds oil better than the last one.
My quaife leaks like a goodun on track days.

I can't see it leaking as it looks like a standard t5 from the outside and that never leaked before.

Hi this is a good sign of u getting your car to handle ok.

The g forces send the gearbox oil up the side [inside] it and out the breather.

I tried all manner of things to stop this.

Even a curled up breather tube inside the gearbox, with 3 turns, and that didnt work.

U could always vent, via a tube to a plastic bottle in engine bay somewhere.

I just went simple.........

A tube from box breather [bigger is better]
