Identify this Tremec box

[J_D 2.0]

Thought this is interesting. Holmart are selling an apparent 6060 even though it's from 2006 - 2012. I don't know if it's really a T56 or if indeed it is a 6060 and it's just that it fits early VE? I assume it's the latter?

The same gearbox I bought from them and put in my SSV. The TR6060 is basically an evolution of the original T56 box. From what the below says a T56 has a directly mounted shifter and the TR6060 uses a remote mounted shifter.

So the one I linked is indeed a 6060?

Holmart will thank you for your purchase!

Hahahaha, unlikely. He takes your money but rarely if ever says thanks. Impression I have from dealings with him in the past is he's doing us a favour by supplying the parts.

@losh1971 Did you ever get the number from the top of the box with that camera, for Mal Wood?

Nah, I couldn't find it. Plus the camera was hard to get pointing in the right direction as the gap is so small.

Why not just ring them @ (03) 9532 1817, get it straight from the horses mouth rather than assuming what you dont know.

Have you tried ringing Holmart? I've tried several times and he doesn't pick up. I've emailed him and he might reply he might not. He is not easy to deal with, so don't assume he is.

Maybe he knows you too well?

Maybe, I've never been able to get through to him on the phone. It goes through to a message bank and says he's away and he never returns your call.

When you email him he doesn't provide much of a response, and if you email him back asking another question or to clarify something you don't get a reply. I try not to deal with him any more. The last time was when I was asking about buying some rims. In the end I gave up as it was all too hard for him.

From my experience he doesn't care if he makes a sale or not, at least it seems that way.
