Quaife Engineering launches 5-speed sequential gearbox for Fiesta ST150

Transmission specialist and supplier of ATB differential units for the Focus RS launches innovative 5-speed ‘hybrid' sequential gearbox for Ford Fiesta ST150.

Quaife Engineering is delighted to announce an exciting new addition to its renowned range of Ford performance transmissions, in the form of a five speed sequential gearbox for the popular Fiesta ST150 hot hatchback. Ideal for fast road, trackday or motorsport use, this represents the ultimate ‘no compromise' transmission system for the front wheel drive Ford.

Careful design by Quaife's in house technical team has resulted in an innovative package which marries a new Quaife sequential cluster to the Fiesta's original Ford IB5 gearbox maincase, delivering significant advantages in cost, ease of fitment and outstanding performance compared to competitor products.

As part of the development process Quaife's technicians have designed an all new bespoke gearbox end cover, which packages both the new dog engagement gear cluster and cable operated sequential gearchange mechanism. Cleverly, Quaife's new sequential gearbox has been produced to be directly compatible with the original Fiesta ST150 driveshafts, gearbox and engine mounts, greatly simplifying the installation process.

Quaife's adherence to this demanding technical brief resulted in a ‘hybrid' gearbox that's priced at an ultra competitive level, yet delivers ultra-rapid gearshifts in a way no traditional ‘h-pattern' transmission could possibly match.
