They're not a new company, they've made honda stuff for a long time

edit: this is not me standing behind their product or endorsing it in any way, but based on their track record my opinion is that they will be releasing a good product

We are sending several sets for testing in various cars in November. I completely understand those who prefer to wait until a product has been on the market for a while with real world results. This preorder group buy is discounted for those who want to get in early. After the initial release we will be closing this offer but the parts will still be available at the regular price for those who wish to wait.

Probably next year for the 6 speed. We need to recoup the cost of the 5 speed first.

Nice to see there is going to be a possibility. Need to make sure my 6-speed holds together until you guys decide.

in for this. I believe the 6 speed's synchros are the weak point aren't they? I've had my trans rebuilt by TRE, would love to throw some of these in there. Maybe then it'll hold more than 350lbft lol

I thought it was the gears themselves that are narrower than the 5 speed, and that that is what became a problem at higher power levels?

6-speed is the gears. since the transmission is the same size i think they cut down the 3rd gear mostly (why not 5th or 6th!) to make room for the extra gear

decent transmisson, just weak sadly

1st and 2nd are slightly wider, but the rest are more narrow. 4th gear is typically what shreds first under extended abuse.
