Worth a call to JKM (Kate or Jim) - 0239 263 9933 - They have plenty of experience fitting both Quaife and Peloquin (said to be noisier) to manuals. DSG needs someone with DSG experience.

HTH

Are they pretty much the same price?

Post by: gillm on February 05, 2010, 02:38:52 pm: just spoke to regal who can supply quaife . and will fit for Â£380

does that sound about right ?

Post by: RedRobin on February 05, 2010, 05:05:54 pm: ^^^^
I don't know about whether Â£380 is about right or not but do know it's a full day's work and that JKM would want to thoroughly test your car before handing you back your keys, as did VWR with mine.

Title: Re: quaife diffs (where too in the south west )
Post by: gillm on February 07, 2010, 11:16:04 pm: it looks like tsr are doing 10% off diffs at the mo and maybe 20% if a group buy of 5 or more happens

o2q is Â£605 inc 10% off
