I love the gearing, and the transmission overall, unfortunately the 6 speed has unacceptable flaws. When you slam 3rd or 5th... if you are off by a bit, or if you miss the shift and hit the inner walls of the H pattern, you risk crowning the slider. You will have 6th gear lockout issues.
Since I've had the shep trans, I've had zero issues with synchros or my gears blowing up... however, I have missed 3rd at one point, and had to take apart the trans to replace the 5/6 slider. Just last night, same thing happened when getting into 5th in a high speed run... and now 6th is hard to get into.
Because of this, and the fact that no one wants to tune my car properly... I'm actually selling this car for 26k. Takes 600 bucks to replace the slider. Or you can go 5 speed on it.
Just ordered an AEM EMS Series 2 for it... going to give it one last go at a tune, so that whomever buys it has a car that has good driveability... because right now it's a crap tune down low, but great at boost.
Thank you sir! It is for sale
Thank you!

That's too bad, but thanks for letting me know.
Naw I edited them in low res. I may have the originals without the HDR Toning in high res There was some minor photoshopping done. My front lip is in NO way in mint condition. Has some scrapes and blemishes on the front end from rocks. Car is a NY car with 55k miles unfortunately lol.
