6 speed question

I heard the RSX is a 6 speed and this question maybe a long shot but is there a way to take a 6 speed out of an RSX and run it in with ITR. Just curious.

Not really, the new gen motors turn the other way and I'm sure they won't mate up to a B-SERIES block even if they did.

The advantages of having a six speed, which are debatable at best, do not outweigh the cost of manufacturing the gearbox.

LOL... And it would amount to "manufacturing."

Re: 6 speed question (George Knighton)

You could go and find a sequential gearbox for a b-series for less than the cost of fabricating a way to use the RSX 6 speed. Both are ridiculous price wise.
