danny, are you gonna rally your svx 6mt? Otherwise it has a 50/50 split that is traction enough. Trust me, Jesse's 6mt didn't skip a beat with a 165 shot of n02!!!!

JDM tranny to drive??
I'm not quite sure why you guys rave about the JDM tranny as regards to drivability - my family has two JDM's and they both understeer like ba$tards without even pushin' em too hard. In fact I just about pulled myself off the road the other day as mine couldn't claw it's way through the corner. Certainly doesn't feel like a rear biased AWD!
My tranny is in pretty good nick too as far as I'm aware, and camber etc is all per standards. Matt

First you really don't want to get different sized wheels because what you're talkinga bout with different sized outer diameters of tires is what F's with the transfer clutchpack. I'd suggest playing around in a parking lot. I've found in my US version, that with hard throttle application, my car slides completely neutrally. (i do have extra stereo weight in the back) but with light throttle, and taking a moderate turn, the front end can just slide one me. I think mbtolozcko's rear sway bar would be a good solution to neutral handling all the time

Maybe a touch OT
How much of a handling difference would swapping a Euro spec tranny for a US spec tranny really make?
I'm going to have to replace / repair my tranny in the next year or so max, and was considering going with a Euro spec auto and have it worked over by Level10 in Jersey. A six speed would be nice, but I've gotten used to the auto (I'm gettin' old too.) And would like peoples opinions on what the difference would be? Any Euro or Aussie drivers input would be tremendously appreciated. Jonathan
