I could go that route, but that would be a specialist job because I'm not confident enough with gearbox internals. I did message a fella known as "Rally Matt" on XPF who built/builds the PG1 boxes with the Quaife diffs and steel caged bearings. I think people have had some problems getting hold of him, but I messaged him anyway. I think he is based somewhere near Silverstone?

What's the cost of installing diff and steel bearings into a box, anyone got a rough idea? There's two places local to me that do gearbox rebuilds, although one of them gets terrible reviews!
