i have seen a loit of modifications to trannys, but i have never heard of an rx with 6 speed out of the world of gran turismo 3/ tokyo extreme racer zero anyway i was just wondering if it was possible. i know very little about transmitions.

-Mikey Mike Fusaro

 

I don't know alot either. But I am interested in beefing up/ replacing stocker with a direct fit built tranny. See what you can find on search with Dogmission or T-56 Swaps or just tranny swaps... I dunno.... I couldn't find much. But then again... I am not good at the search function. I wanna run gobs of power and need a tranny to handle it.

-- Eric

p.s. I know T-56 is not a direct replacement

 

T-56 I am sure could be made to work somehow but can't handle the high rpms of a rotary so everyone says.

HKS makes a sequential 6 speed that'll set you back probably about 7-8k...

I am sure there are other options out there besides these..

 

I think the main problem is integrating the PPF on to the new tranny and having the tranny be stong enough to support those forces.

 

Well.. that's why I am gonna get the beautiful red PPF from Mazda Speed.

Any one got any more info on this HKS tranny? I won't be getting it for a year.. but I still wanna all over it.

-- Eric

p.s. It's funny how we get all hyped on stuff. 20B, Bridgeport... and then realize that it's really not plausible.

 

Check out the guru racing dogmission. Its a 6-speed clutchless tranny. its around 5k.

or check out a g force tranny with an H pattern shifter

I want it streetable though.... will these work? I.E. Not pushing the 7 out of the parking space because there is no reverse

-- Eric

 

oh man i didnt even realize they made trannys with no rev gear heh anyway whats the big problem with getting a 6speed into an rx, is it b/c or size like not enough room for it or is the 13b only compatible with a certain type. soorry i know im making an *** outta myself for asking dumb wuestions but i dont know much about trannys

 

Again.. in my limited knowledge... Basically you are looking at trying to get the bell housing to fit in to the tranny tunnel. And I don't know about the bolt pattern to match it up.... probably have to fab a bell housing? I dunno... I am still searching. I figure in a year I will have enough info on what direction I wanna go with it.

-- Eric

 

Found one!

Where the hell is that HKS one? I thought I saw a pic of it at a trade show?

What do you guys think of it? Not a fan of greddy but....

-- Eric

 

Who's everyone?

 

I don't think HKS 6 speed is a sequential tranny.

6 Speed Sequential which uses the clutch only on downshifts because RPM's have to be matched.
(DOUBLE CLUCHING WOULD BE VERY USEFULL HERE)

It's about 7 g's installed and can be successfully mated to the 13B

 

Both have reverse and both are streetable (depending on which model g-force you look at)

They would not be any worse than the HKS or any other clutchless tranny out there.

 

Sorry jim, I correct myself. From what I remember someone was saying and it was pretty much agreed on that the T56 wouldn't do well in a high-reving rotary application.

I could be wrong though because you probably know more about it then me. And I could be remembering wrong.

 

LMFAO

 

Why is that so funny Van Sema? Oh.. I also noticed that that Greddy kit is for JDM spec trannys. How much for one of those? Or just worth it to by something else?

-- Eric

 

am I the only one can't find the 6 speed tranny that Delta_rotary talk about??????

 

Will the JDM Tranny not mate up to the car?

 

You could be right... I noticed people calling it at "HKS Dogmission" though so I thought it was sequential.

 

guru said they could add another gear to the setup.

 

BTW, I was thinking about this last night and were you the one who said it wouldn't handle high rpm rotarys very well? Something about grinding. I don't remember it all.

 

Kenny be right, it's not sequential.

QUaife makes a 6sp gear set for the stock FD trans.


Quaife Gearkits are ultra-close ratio kits for fast road and sport use. They have been designed to fit the standard gear cases of most popular competition cars. Available with dog type engagement or synchromesh. Some kits replace four with five, or five with six gears.

HKS sells a 6 speed mission over here.. I dont know about in the USA, it goes for about $7000. I think...
