I'm so jealous! I'd love to have mine built, but I'm having trouble justifying the cost when I have a 5spd swap just sitting in my garage...

:(

where are you getting the 4.30 final from?

I had 430/388 on my last setup, no problems. Finishing up the new build and had planned on going with a built transmission. Love my 6 speed 🤙🏼

never going 5 against for my car. i absolutely love my 6 speed, coming from a built, shep trans with ultimate ratios. that is perfect for a track car, which mine is not

Same here. Mine grinds 3rd and 4th, so it has to come out in favor of the 5spd. :(

PAR are cutting the gear for me. Its going to be a "quiet spec" straight cut gear for strength. I will post up a comparison of the stock ratios and the 4.3 that im getting.

https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.evo...86158333a3.pngSo these are the stock ratios theoretical speeds

https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.evo...03bfbdc877.pngThis is the 4.3 ratio theoretical speeds

Should be fine as long as you have the torque to deal with the larger gap between gears. {thumbup}. On road courses, I find myself using 5th quite a bit. I'd like to be able to stay in 4th.
Actually... I wish we could pick our gearing for each. I'd run a super tall 1st, closer ratio up to 5th, then keep a tall 6th for the days I have to drive to the track LOL.

I will be at the mercy of stock block torque unfortunately. But i think the lil 7670 should be up to the task of keeping it on the boil 😊

I’m definitely the odd one who will be going back to the 6 speed for my MR after swapping in a 5 speed. I’ve had my old transmission rebuilt by Jacks with their gear set and will be installing a trans cooler this time

they have a 6 speed trans cooler?

You have to fab one up. I made a parts list and started to collect fittings until my 6spd started acting up.
If someone is still doing rebuilds on the future, I'll have mine done. If not...sequential?
😁
I dislike the 5spd that much. LOL

That’s why I’m going back to the six speed! I also had a JDM 5th year. 4100 rpm at 80mph is a bit excessive, but pulls with an older Z06
