The Chalak sets are pretty nice. I like the MPH on the set below 
:
(ratios for the synchromesh set w/3.90 diffs)
1st gear 3.18 ratio = 41.79 mph
2nd gear 1.94 ratio = 68.51 mph
3rd gear 1.35 ratio = 98.45 mph
4th gear 0.966 ratio = 137.58 mph
5th gear 0.74 ratio = 179.60 mph (remains stock)
Ryan runs a Chalak dog set. Sounds sick on the road, but dogs are too much like high maintenance girlfriends for my taste.
how much are these options gonna run me? i just dont want to spend too much
although with the way my gearbox feels like it kinda binds up a little bit now when warm, im sure under 300whp load she wont last too long.... so,
The chalak sets sound nice, but as far as STi RA vs.. Chalak Hardened Synchro set? which one takes the durability bit? id like the toughest for the best price! i would imagine there is nothing wrong with overbuilding a trans... so if you have prices accessible, let me know? after all this stuff gets done, the gearset is prob. the next after that...
thanks
