Good catch. I know a little about dog boxes. Enough to know I don't know them well.
However your right. I am thinking Sequential has syncros and dog box doesn't.
I also thought most used sequential boxes for road racing and street cars. Dog box was more of a drag racers thing. Wide open no clutch up shifts?
Sequential boxes and dog boxes are the same thing pretty much although full sequentials are known to be stronger and you shift by pushing the gear stick forward and back. Dog boxes come as an H pattern which if you want to shift sequential style you have to adapt it.
The team I work for we had a 7 with a dog box needed a rebuild after ever weekend and that was 660bhp on low boost and 740bhp on normal boost on a 2.2 they were about £5k + vat + fitting.
Now we have a fully sequential box the same one Steve hill uses in his rally cross evo x in our evo x these boxes are £15,000 + vat + fitting.
You can shift with no clutch on both but it won't last.
He says that there's a hole where the gear stick should be in the save the manuals thread so how does he change gear?
Also on a dog or a sequential you don't press a button to go into N you actually shift "down" when your in first.
