Won't help the massive loss of revs 2-3, will be the same! I don't get it, how hard can it be for sports car manufacturers to give us decent ratios where 2-5 are super-close, and 1 is granny-gear for getaways and 6 is super-tall for highway mpg. Seems like nobody does this right!
Yeah, the 2-3 and 3-4 spacing sucks. 4-5 and 5-6 spacing in this car is way better. Nothing to be done about it, though I think the taller rear end might be a positive.
Great stuff! Always *always* pushing :D Man that 2-3 rpm drop is *brutal*! Any better transmission options?
Both rx8 gearboxes have a pretty big drop 2 to 3. I'm probably going to try 4.7 gears next year, which will help some. The car has 4.44s now

Crazy speed through oval section! S2 gearbox swap is a win as it seems?
Yup, shifts are much much better now!
Spicy!
