[/quote] I just realized it’s only the $3500 Quaife 6 speed synchro gearset in a normal case. I was thinking of the Quaife 6 speed complete tranny which is 18-21 grand. 3500 is actually pretty cheap for a strong 6 speed synchro set. Kaaz and others charge more than that. ---

Not sure if that’s the transmission PT was talking about or not, but he mentioned getting a sequential dogbox I believe… We shall see. I can’t wait to check it out how it is now. :tup: ---

Quaife gearset is nice, and strong but has seen a few cases of failure on the strip.(Probably driver error). I, honestly, would want the longer gears of the 5 spd for the boost. My stock 5spd. first gear is useless, so he must have a rowboat in there. Still a sick machine! ---
