I just posted a for sale thread on my car but im not in a hurry to sell actually i would rather keep it if i can find a transmission for a reasonable price
car is a 2004 mazda rx8
has a 6 speed now looking for a replacement that is in good to great condition
also if anyone can tell me how easy it would be to go from 6 to 5 i may conside switching to 5 speed

AA,
I got one that I took out. It was not liking track duty (the 3 to 4 shift at 9,000 RPM was a bit dodgy about half the time). Dodgy means is went into gear fine, it just made noise for a few tenths of a second. I found out later my clutch out of adjustment (because I am stupid) and it was not releasing all the way. But, that is the only issue, it was fine on the street.. I was going to either take it apart to see how one worked, or take it apart to part it out.
But, if you need one for street use, make me an offer. I live in central florida, so the transportation piece may not be too bad. I also have an Exedy Stage 1 clutch with very few miles on it.
