5 to 6 Speed Feedback

[bchaney]

The FD will be 4.764 and the RSX-S 6th gear is the same as 5th on the 5 Speed -- so they will be the same. Acceleration in each gear looks like it will be much better but will require more shifting.

You've pretty much got it summed up there. I guess you're just wondering how much of a difference in acceleration you'll see. That's gonna be hard to determine unless you can find some track times or drive an 02-04 TypeS yourself for comparison.

If I were you I would swap the k20z3 internals into your transmission case. Then you wouldn't have to press gears onto different countershafts or even mess with your ring gear.

Edit - or you could just get the 05-06 TypeS trans... same FD as the EP.
