Hmmm, maby because they suck?
They have proven to be much weaker at higher power levels than the gsr tranny. I would pay a soild amount of $$$$ to have a solid 6 spd in the X however. I hate 5 speeds.

60,000 miles not a single issue. factory clutch went at 52,000 miles. 340awhp drives great. make sure you maintain it and dont drive it like its a rental you will be fine.

Few folks are willing to do the legwork and find the true source of the issue, yet everyone wants to feel like they belong. So, we get one noob after another parroting the same lines until they become ingrained in the culture. Just look at this thread. If you really want to know how the 6-speeds respond, search for the big 6-speed thread and read every post.
