Anybody Know of a 6 speed for del sol?
I have a 1994 Del Sol SI (D16Z6). Does anybody know if there is, and where I might find one, a 6 Speed Trans that will fit this particular engine, in this car?
Help on this would be much appreciated.

You wouldn't be able to pick up any speed (probably even have problems MAINTAINING speed) in 6th gear. The amount of power you'd need to make just isn't there on a stock motor. Gearing comes into play.

Re: (c_riggan)
I live in germany too and I´m absolutly satisfied with my 5 speed........at the autobahn as well as on the track! What do you think a 6 speed can do? You still have 1.6 liters and 125hp, and guess what.........that will not change with a 6th gear.
