Clint with the pewter s15 has a whole collection of broken 5 speeds in his garage Tristan with less than 300hp has gone through three 5 speeds Markos's old s15 smashed his 6 speed after the 200kw mark Funny you should mention the rb20 box, on my last car, the rb25 s1480, that was running an rb20 box and it loved life, (albeit only a stock rb25 making 305hp). I can understand people breaking them from crappy shifting, but when it strips the teeth off the gears under acceleration don't think there's much you can do to prevent that, if it's gonna break it's gonna break. |

My rb20 box only lasted 3 months behind my standard rb20 lol SR 5 speeds not much better?? I always thought they were pretty reliable. |

Fuuuuucccckkkkkkk I just bought VS-KF's for my S15, although it's Pewter. What specs are yours? P.S. looks great Yeah VSKF and Kranze are my favourite rims. My VSKF's are: Front - 18x9" +9 R-Disk (BKB) with 215/40/18 Rear - 18x9.5" +14 O-Disk (BKB) with 225/40/18 and each corner owes me about $500 on modified metal guard work + paint |

wow spun bearing much... Yeah I was pretty devo'd. It happened on the 3rd corner of the 1st lap at the first drift day I went to after getting the new turbo, cams, injectors and fpr put in and tuned. Was even more disappointing because the car had been driving great for the week prior between getting it tuned and the track day. I even had it serviced (oils changed etc) before the track day. Sadly I think it was just that engines time. Vid of it dying, literally first lap (car in front spun twice that's why start/stop so often) |

Didn't you have this up for sale ages ago? |
