How a Dog Box works

How you ever wondered exactly what people are referring to when they talk about a "Dog Box"?
In this video we take a look at the Dog Box out of our Honda Civic Rally Car, and talk about the differences between this construction and a common synchromesh gearbox you'd typically find in a street car.
We also take a look at the practical differences between straight and helical cut gears.

Can I show this video to my manual transmissions professor and possibly show this in my class? We had a brief discussion about how dog boxes work and this is an excellent explanation. Cheers mate. Love your videos.

Very rarely do I have all my questions addressed and answered with one video but you managed to educate and inform. Brilliant vid and now I know how a dog box works.

[@BushCampingTools]

Great explanation, was always wondering how they work!

[@linchester8464]

when i think of dog box straight cut gearbox i always think of the 2001 BMW M3 GTR. the gearbox whine sounds like a jet engine as the revs piles up clutchless dog box are bad for street driving if my info is correct since the dog box engagement works at high revs low revs you will be grinding gears

[@penguinactually]

For anyone wondering this a year on, and with a sample size of 1, I've got a Jericho 4 speed dog box in my V8. So long as throttle is around 40% or preferably less to take some load off the gears you can slap your next gear in smooth as butter and with the sickening metal clunk that's disgustingly satisfying as you do. You can drive around as you would in a normal car shifting at 2000+ RPM just fine :)

[@mohamadrezaghadami1238]

synchromesh or dog box ?! which one has a longer lifespan ?!

[@eghatchsosa]

The shaft that the shift linkage goes connected to at 3:08. Was that made like that to get rid of shifter slop?

[@humblemoves5903]

Great information. Thank you!!!

[@louwq7283]

Can you have straight cut gears with syncros?

[@MRTPerformanceAustralia]

[@samuelvodicka8441]

How do you take off? Does it still have a clutch?

[@terra_ryzer]

perfectly explained.. thank you so much.. 👍👍

[@handre8969]

Which would you take... a turbo car with a normal gearbox or a slower na car with a dogbox...

[@prathamporwal7506]

[@edonveil9887]

How much angular play there needs to be?

[@metalicharsha]

[@spoola__]

Im confused. Can you still have a standard h pattern manual with straight cut gears and a dog engagement?

[@boppe2235]

Yup That's what nascar uses

[@ukracer7593]

Yep, got it in my race car and the one before. Quaife (amongst others) make them.

[@martinzeosex]

So after buying a 1-4th dogbox gears what else do you need to make it work? 02-04 type s tranny

[@jonnyb2532]

[@deodatussylvester342]

[@7071mianz]

How much dog box gearbox for Evo 3

[@TIMTIM-xm5pr]

What oil you used for thsi?

[@eadams1975]

Similar to sportbike, MX bike gearbox set.

[@macro820]

Did you mention why the trans was out?

[@MRTPerformanceAustralia]

yep, preventive maintenance

[@impleasen]

Ok so what did you replace, new dog rings and the gears with the dogs? How long did it last before you had to do the maintenance?

[@BlackBirdOverflow]

Oh so its like this, i was wondering why stuffing puppies in the gearbox dies and my shifter didn't work

[@sskkuuddrraa]

so why are they so expensive?

[@ukracer7593]

Supply and demand.

[@evilsimeon]

That was good.

[@AQHackAQ]

So basically a motorcycle transmission

[@lloyddotimas6302]

I really love driving, I love shifting gears... I want to clutchless shift like I do on my motorcycle. I want a dog box for my honda, but I just cant source one
