The stock trans is a strong unit. 2nd and 4th gear are going to be your problems.

I feel that a stock honda trans will work just fine at those kind of numbers. Tire size is a big part of your question as well.

There are some aftermarket gear sets out there but none that have proven to not be problematic in the same areas as the stock gears. Costs on these gear sets is a big factor to, because they are quit pricey.

I say if it's a street car pop an lsd in the thing pair it with some good axles and clutch and go tear the strip up. If a racecar get ya a spool and the rest the same

phantom grips don't tend to do so hot with those kit of numbers but it has been awhile since we've ran one in anything that high. I here with the upgraded springs and diff saver stuff that they hold quite a bit.
