Only other solution I see is that TRE still services 6-speed transmissions. http://www.teamrip.com/TRE_6SPEED_EV...20SERVICE.html

The 6 speed has a good ratio for circut and track, it is more comfortable has a dd car, and if we go for the budget lets say that 5 speed cost 2500 usd i'll need to pay for shipping something like 300 $ and i need special document for the customs " for what you need it " and all of them other bol****. And pay anoter 70 % for the customs to release the box another 400$ to tuner for the work...

The tax in here screw us alot

The 6 speed is a much smoother gearbox than the 5 speed. And technically gears 1 and two are stronger on the 6 speed. The best option are the Albins gears now available from Jacks. You should find out how long the gears will be out of stock.

On a 2.4, the stock 6 speed probably won't last too long.

So erik, by your words my only chance is the albins gearkit that focus in the problam 3-4-5 gears.

But if it's out of stock from jack, it is vary intresting who got those kits and how it run, comparing to the stock andd maybe for the 5 speed

It used to be available through Shep Transmissions. That's where I got mine.

Biffman has it on his car, but my car isn't up and running yet.

Good luck, dude! I am swapping to a 5 right now and already miss my 6. I took a look at the ratios in my 5. Bleh.

My 6spd broke and I don't have the money to have it built...so had to go with the 5spd. 😢
