any transmission out of a modern car will not break on you while autocrossing or track racing unless you do something stupid with it and/or abuse it.
Will it wear? Yes, but it wont take a dump on you.

Previous '93 Si tranny was great. Old '94 DX tranny was great. Current tranny with LSD is great. I think they're great.

i run an std with a 91 si tranny and it holds up well. i never get out of second gear. first could be taller but other than that it's the motor(d15b2) that seems more limiting.
