Not sure what makes it too bad, we stand behind our work and out of the 30+ trannies we have all over the US we have yet to have one go out on us (knocking on wood right now

Not bad...i'm a bit "Easter Dinner'd" so forgive me. It's just I've had nothing but problems with Sub's synchros...I was hoping they were upgraded parts in the RA gear set. No biggy. 
1 day sounds awesome though! So that answers my question, I should stop worrying until my tranny actually breaks!
You guys rock, keep it up.

Gearing on these is,
3.083 (1st), 2.062 (2nd), 1.545 (3rd), 1.151 (4th), 0.825 (5th)
As for the 180 thing, I thought your car was about 175whp or so already.

+1 for the RA gears. Hands down the best mod I have done on my car, by far. Combine these with a short shifter and catless up/downpipes, and that's the way the car should have come from the factory (imho).

I just wanted to post up a note for Mike @ MPJ......
I just wanted to say Thanks to Mike for putting up with my frustrated phone calls on Sat. for installing the Whiteline right RSB Mount.....
I FINALLY got it installed on Sunday....talk about a 20 min. project turned into a 2 day nightmare.....anyways.... Its all back together, and working fine.
Thanks again Mike for listening to my b!tching
Next project will be FUN.....not maintenance.....Installing the StopTechs.....Unfortuneatly it will probably be a few weeks before I get to put those in.

02silversuby - No diff should be changed at your next service as per the FHI black book. Yes please dump the tranny fluid and put in some more GL5 goop.
platypus - Liar, you said the best mod you did was by adding our stickers. I feel so so cheated now.
GotBoost? - That's ok mate anytime, much better than the calls I get from Dre complaining about him having to be the taker not the giver in his relationship with Tommy.
We have more gearsets arriving next week I am told
Mike
