Look into getting your transmission faceplates, iirc it's about $2500-3500. It's amazing, auto is boring as shit and why in 4 years I've put on maybe 3k miles, my 5 spd car I averaged well over 15k miles a season.

Ill take that into perspective Aaron. Still think im going manual tho. If it breaks it breaks itll sit untill i come up with enough money to fix it. Sounds stupid but i guess its all on me whatever happens

Or see if liberty will faceplate DSM gear!!!!???. They do Honda stuff for each gear for $80(so 4), sliders for $250, and hubs $160.

I broke two 5 speed transmissions. I ran multiple high 9 second passes on the original trans, then the car got faster and then the breakage started happening. Both stripped 4th gear. I recommend that you stick with a 5 speed for a while, then upgrade to a dogbox if you still like racing, your power and track times warrant it. I would upgrade a lot of other stuff before the transmission - rear axles, transfercase, driveshaft, and then a dogbox. And once your at the dogbox level you'll never look back!

Or go auto, either way.
