Hi guys is there any difference in the early model MPS3 and the later models gearbox? My 08 gearbox is about to say goodbye and have an opportunity to purchase a later low k version

Yep. Gen 2 has taller gearing in the first few gears I think. Think they are interchangeable though.

Good to hear they are interchangeable. Are the later ones any stronger?
They are all strong. There are very few problems with gearboxes even with big power cars. All the damaged ones seem to be from abuse or just wear (worn, damaged shift forks etc).

Mine hasn't had a hard life since I have had it but unsure of previous owner. Its whining its head off in first and second, making a clicking noise when accelerating hard in 3rd...
I've just installed an Gen2 gearbox in my Gen1. As far as fitment it is a direct swap. I did read while researching that people have experienced some jerking at light throttle due to the ECU using different ratio's. The ratios can be changed using an access port, which I did right from the start, so I can't comment on this.
