Well, I have decided that im going to keep my RSTi and continue to let it drain me of my money:keke:. At the moment im running a ralispec version 6 non-ra gear set and 4.44 diffs all around. The gear set is stronger than a wrx but im thinking i want to play it safe and try and get something thats indestructable. I guess my twpo options are either a 6-speed swap or new PPG's. At the moment im leaning towards the 6-speed because i can sell my current setup and make back around half of the cost of the swap. What do you guys think?
what year 6-speed, and will the gearing difference be what you want? ps: glad to hear you're sticking around
i guess i was gonna try and track down an 07 gear box, i actually really do like the 5-speed but the fact that the 6-speed will end up beign half the price of PPG's is the reason im leaning towards that.
Ok I voted without seeing the half the price deal. If that is the case, I'd definitely go for the 6. My only complaint about the 6 speeds is the short gear ratios, but that's probably mainly because I'm used to driving my wrx. If price is really that huge of a difference, I'd definitely go with the 6.
yes, the bigph i believe wasselling them. they run about 5k plus install plus those ere straight cut, i dont really want to worry about the noise. after i sell my current setup i can probably do the 6-speed swap for 2-3k max, that seems a lot better to me than the 5 speed even though i like the much longer gearing.
I voted 6 speed, but that if you want to keep dragging it, the 07 would definitely be the best option!
that was me and they are still for sale if you go with ppgs let me know i have 1-4 straight cut synchros and the driveshaft. i wil be very happy to sale them to someone on our forun instead of nasioc phil
