BRENNAN Motorsport Sequential Gearbox
Brennan Motorsport & Engineering Gearbox
4/5/6 SPEED SEQUENTIAL GEARBOX
The B M E Sequential Gearbox has been built and designed for the serious racer. The B M E transmission is based around the original Hewland 5 Speed STA Transmissison but has been totally re-engineered using the same equipment and technology that is used in other B M E products.
B M E has worked closely with Hewland on this project. B M E now manufacture the shafts and wide gear sets to bring the high quality associated with all Hewland transmissions to the B M E gearbox.
All new cases, sequential shift mechanism, selectors etc are designed, modelled and produced by B M E. Each gearbox is hand assembled and checked for correct operation prior to shipment with customers choice of ratios personally by Grant Brennan.
B M E gearboxs assembled in cars ready for first tests back in 2007 & 2008.

Special sensors that give gear position or sequential cam rotation as well as selector activation position are an option so that precise flat shift is easily available using existing aftermarket computers such as Motec or others that are dedicated to shift only.
Oil Quantity : 1.9 litres or 2 qts Oil Recommendation – Any high performance race car transmission oil that is suited for sequential gearbox fitted with oil cooler. Such as Lucas SAE 140, Lucas SAE 250, Joe Gibbs Gear Oils & Mobil 1 gear oil.
Hi Performance road rated gear oils have proven to be insufficient to lubricate and cool these transmissions.
