I was wondering what had happened to them. Once upon a time in the good old days of tariffs and locally manufactured parts-bin-engineered rear wheel drive cars, Borg Warner made the auto and manual transmissions for Ford, Nissan, Mistubishi, Chrysler, etc etc. Their first 5 speed manual was plonked in the Sigma, the 2.8 litre Commodore, the 3.3 litre Falcon, the Bluebird, etc.
Who other than Ford are they still making trannies for these days? Or have they moved into other areas again?
I'm not sure who Borg-Warner is still making gear for. The last I heard they got rid of all their overseas companies and pretty much disappeared. I think they are a british company. (I could be totally wrong on this, i'm not sure)
We only make trannies for Ford and Ssangyong, which are your Musso's and Rextons and the like.
We have been sold and are now known as Drivetrain Systems International (DSI). The sale went through at 5 this arvo.
Cheers
