Type-S tranny

I'm thinking about buying a type-s, will I have trouble with the tranny if I'm not used to driving a 6 speed even though I have experience driving a 5 speed? Not worried or anything, but have heard about problems with people getting a little bit over excited and mis-shifting.

no worries!!! Once you try it, you won't want anything else... And don't even worry about the 6th gear... you really don't use it unless you're on the highway.... it's just a shift down from 5th.... I used to drive a 5 speed... but I love my 6 speed, I doubt I'll go back.

Bad springs, bad bearings, bad realibility (as bad as the Eclipse).
