oh speaking of boosted honda, who is the guy that works at schnucks with the black one? i see that thing all the time parked up there when i go to the gym.
The trans isn't that bad in these cars. As long as you don't beat it to hell by shifting hard. I actually have the infamous 5-speed tranny on my car. Your trans is a little stronger than mine since you have the newer generation. I've never heard about a weak casing. Where did you hear about that?

I know that guy. Met him several years ago. Was wondering where he went.

btw you've not been in a car with me while i shifted, no lift, power shift ftw. i broke 3 t56's in my camaro lol. i do ok not to slam the subie gears too hard though. i just bought a new turbo for it cheap, now i need to install and tune it. should be fun.
Bwill9886;263554 wrote:Ah, I think I remember him talking about you.
Yep, he's still around and in good health.
In good health. Thats nice to hear. Since you said that, you probably know how I met him then.

I do read NASIOC quite a bit. Thats why I said the generation I have is the one that should really worry about the shitty 2nd gear. Your gen is a smidge better. Just don't slam the gears and you will be fine. They can handle the hp, just not the slamming. You could always swap out to a 6 speed.

Just depends on the year the 6-speed came out of. If you get the right one, you only need the tranny.
