possible to add a 6th gear?

Is it possible to add a 6th gear to the tranny on a 4g63?

[drdisque]

no, you can't simply add a gear to a transmission and as far as I know, there's no 6 speed that bolts onto the DSM side of a 4G63.

Transmission from an Evo MR?

You don't really need it, with the right amount of money I would assume it's possible, but realistically, it's not a good idea.

true, i remember once, a rich white boy came up to me and started talking to me about my rs and his gsx he said he had a 6 speed transmission,

Remember, the Evo 4g63 is a mirror from ours, the tranny is on the other side correct? I dont think it would be any easier than hooking up a Honda tranny.

Ya, but what if you just take the tranny out, and like just flip it lol.

That's the "in" thing to do these days at the track

I'd like to go down the track in reverse at over 90mph.

How would it even bolt on upside down? Can you bolt your head on upside down? (<--- rhetorical question)

if it's a mirror, would it be possible to rebuild an mr tranny in the dsm tranny? maybe get a custom bell housing made.

[1stGenRocks]

email shep racing or tre engineering. im sure if anyone could build a 6 speed trans for a dsm they could.

ive always thought a 6th gear would be nice as i cruise along the highway doing 70 at 3200 rpms lol

Even if you could get an MR tranny to work, I read on an evo forum that they arent nearly as strong and don't hold up to power nearly as well as the 5 speed evo tranny.
