4th gear cracking / fracture problems are not that common. I've heard of less than 5 cases ever and 1 of them was a friend of mine.
He now has a built stg 2 or 3 TRE 6 speed with a Shep t-case. I think it's all stock ratios but shot peened gears and probably some other modifications. I think this may have been the first built 6 speed done.

The owner only has a few thousand miles on it since it's been repaired and I dont think it's been back to the dragstrip yet, although I know it's been to some autocross events. So far so good though. You could contact Jon at TRE for pricing. I think he said the shot peen strengthens ~30%. There may be other gear treatment options available as well.

so i just got to test drive a 05 evo 8 mr and the tranny was fine.. do i just have to find one that wasnt beat, and not drive it like an *** hole, cause im only gonna put IC pipes, boost controler at stock boost, catback, 264 cams(S1s), and an intake with a STOCK bov(no ricer crap). and IF i race it will only be the acasional street light with another evo, GT mustang, STR-4. or stop sign. and i no how to shift and not slam it into gear. im 18 and ive been riding motorcycles since i was 6.
