Fair enough. I'm just saying there ain't much to discuss because unless you're a straight baller and you're building a dedicated track car for a specific class, you ain't gonna be putting this in your car any time soon. It costs half of what the car is worth.

LOL. That's too funny! The first video in post #5 (the RX7) is my buddy and myself. I made that video.

The HKS Sequential is awsome to drive..... on the race track (which is what we use that RX7 for)

But on the street, omg it sucks! First of all it is really clunky. Sounds like a motorcycle when you put it into first from neutral except magnified by 20X the noise.

You can't skip gears, you can't go straight to neutral etc... etc... Which really sucks for a street car, especially the inability to go straight to neutral.

And yes, it's very expensive. The whole set up we put in that RX7 cost over $20,000 just for the transmission and related components. (Oil cooler, oil pump, pump computer, lines etc. etc..)

Hey guys, since on the topic of sequential gearboxes i know that Holinger Engineering is currently designing a bell housing for the 86.
i know that the 86's in japan are using Holinger gearboxes but they have custom made adaptors.
