Default help with tranny setup

im planning on building my transmission soon. i have a GSR motor with LS tranny. (the ls tranny is off the car now and im driving on a gsr tranny). correct me if im wrong, i chose the LS tranny cuz its the strongest of all the B series trannies.
my plan is to make it race, but also have low rpms on the highway.

so my plans are to change all the gears.
1st gear: Type R
2nd gear: Type R
3rd gear: Type R
4th gear: Type R
5th gear: LS (for the highway)
could you tell me if thats a good sequence?
suggestions?
Should i put a GSR gear in there somewhere?


Putting on a LSD of course.
Dont really know which is the best, Type R, Quaife, OBX?
suggestions?
cheapest place to buy?


i have a Competition Clutch already. Stage 5 (4 puck). and 8lb flywheel.
haha, i know, excessive. it'll be nice tho.


and i guess axles go hand-in-hand. which axles?

thanks.

LS tranny isn't the strongest and to be honest, that tranny sucks for almost all applications trying to go quicker.

The gears you have chosen are good, but we need to know your setup to help you better. If you can get a quaife, those are very dependable and strong. As far as axles go, DSS makes some good stuff, but again your setup is needed.
