Albins ST6-LP Transmission

Albins has taken the stalwart ST6 Transaxle product that has been embraced by V8 Supercars Car Of the Future Category and used the same gearset and sequential shifting assembly with packaging to suit front-engined, rear wheel drive applications. The ST6-LP is a low profile version of the well-known ST6-I, allowing a lower mounting of the transmission in the tunnel, whilst retaining the tried and tested ST6 gear stack and the usual features of the ST6 range.

Featuring an 1100Nm rated gearset that is formed using gear profile grinding, shot peening and isotropic polishing, the ST6-LP transmissions features the proven Albins sequential shifting system that delivers shift events as fast as 14ms with zero mechanical miss-shifts being logged in endurance testing to 5000km.

Key features of the ST6-LP also includes drop-gear fitment as an option, which substantially reduces spares and inventory costs in regards to ratio changes. An internal oil pump and filter is also standard on ST6-LP transmissions as well as inspection ports for inspection without disassembly.

Available to suit popular engine applications off-the-shelf, such as the LS7. The ST6-LP can be tailored to your application and engine with great ease due to innovative design use and various adapters Albins have in-stock.

The following are some testimonials from our customers who have used the Albins ST6 transmission:

"The Albins box is by far the finest sequential I have driven, both up shifting and down shifting is super slick and smooth, and provides instant selection of the gear required with no miss shifts. The quality and feel is second to none and gives full confidence that the system will not let you down" - Jamie Smyth, 2007 British GT Champion

"Firstly, thanks to MacG Racing for all the help during the past six months. As I expected the gearbox from Albins ran perfectly at Silverstone...with no electronic devices connected. Gear changing up and down is very smooth and easy...Gear ratios are also very well calculated...Many thanks to MacG Racing and Albins!" - Rosen Daskalov, SIN CARS General Manager
