List of MR Owners who has switched to 5 Speed
I managed to look up quite a few owners who did the 5 speed swap, I'd like to really see how many of you switched to the stronger 5 speed.
Also, if you did, list what your major problems were--probably 4th gear?

Are people upgrading before they have problems with their 6 speed? I thought the only problems people were having with the 6 speeds were during road-racing. I thought the problems were developed during road racing and not the inherent stregnth of the gearset in the 6 speed...just curious.

saying the evo tranny whether is be 5 spd or 6 spd is up to the driver. I'm sorry my 5 spd gearbox run perfectly, no problems. If your having a problem with your 5 spd then either a)your a horrible driver or b) you might have a manufacturer's problem with yours. Not every evo I'm sure is built EXACTLY the same there are variances in terms of builds.
