Big difference between a PPG dog box and a sequential. That's not horrible for a sequential

Looks like it's the same people. If I had money to burn I'd buy one but I don't. I could've sworn someone did a sequential for these cars back in the day or maybe I'm just losing my mind. Probably the latter.FYI - a sequential has been released. I haven’t looked to see if it’s the same group, but they’re based in Central Europe and the overall design looks to be the same.

Holinger did a run of 6 speeds for Ralliart’s Group A cars in the 90s, which was the only pure sequential W5M33-platform transmission. It used a GTO transfer case and could be adapted to a variety of final drive ratios. There were other suppliers for Ralliart’s racing efforts (Hewland, X-Trac, and others), but they were all H-pattern dogboxes. Holinger tells people that they will build another run if they get 10 people at $30,000 AUD each (pre-pandemic pricing), which just seems like they don’t want to do it at all. Some used boxes still appear around that amount from time to time in the rally circles. But I think this Czech version leans heavily on the Holinger design (and ratios), so it should take an absolute beating.Looks like it's the same people.

Ok so I'm not totally nuts but I think I remember someone running it on a "street" car. Road Race maybe?Holinger did a run of 6 speeds for Ralliart’s Group A cars in the 90s, which was the only pure sequential W5M33-platform transmission.

I saw some super old information saying a RR car had an Albins dogbox that floated around a bit. The Albins kit was either a 5 or 6 speed helical dogbox at the time with super close ratios, but I heard of a custom made rally kit that even Albins was confused by. It might be doable on a street car since it’s quiet, albeit with the dog engagement shifts. They still make 5 speed kits that are a bit stronger than the old stuff.Ok so I'm not totally nuts but I think I remember someone running it on a "street" car. Road Race maybe?
