hey im just finishing my winter upgrade on my car that i bought last year and one of the things that im in need of is a transmission. my car isnt completely done yet so i have yet to dyno it but im guessing it should put out in the 550 range so i need something that can handle some power. i definitely want to go with a dog gear setup for fast shifts and i am really hoping to find a good 6 speed. im wanting to have the first 5 gears lower then stock for my racing gears and then since my car is street driven i want to have my 6th gear for highway driving so about the same ratio as the factory 5th. ive look at lots of forums for trannies but every time i find one that i like, its not sold anymore, like the quaife gear kit and the guru gear kit. so anyone know of any good 6 speeds that are still available for sale that are reasonably priced? right now my last hope is the hks transmission but those are a little bit on the pricey side. let me know fd lovers

http://www.rx7club.com/showthread.php?t=655772 GTO T56 trans behind a 20b how about the turbo 400 trannys or a gtreg tranny from a skyline? |
ya ive looked at that forum with the gto... looks nice. defenetally one to think about. do you know how the turbo 400 and skyline tranny would fit? i would think the turbo 400 would be too big and havent herd about any done from the skyline, it would have to be the gts-t model if you did it wouldnt it?
|
Arent the skyline trannies only 5 speed? Not to mention that have an awd transfer case as part of it.
|
turbo 400 transmission is a automatic
personally I dont like having a 6 speed in a car im used to having 5 speeds, consider a beefier 5 speed instead, the gearing on a 6 speed makes for too much shifting. Its hard to explain until you drive both cars back to back. |

Any 6 speed that will hold a nice 500 foot ponds custom fitted to a rotary will run you at 7k $$$. Allot of people want to run a 6 speed its just not a hole lot want to spend that much money. It all depends on your budget, if you have the money you can put anything together. |
well i dont mind spending 7 grand on a tranny, im willing to spend 10 if i can get what i want... where could i get one built for 7 grand?
