6speed swap

[DCIV]

Just so you know, you can get an upgraded 18 spline OS which will take anything your going to be able to throw at it. That way you dont have to do the 6 speed swap or do the horrid 18 to 25 spline conversion.

If you find a JDM 6spd, or a 6spd with JDM ring & pinion gears, you will use your 5speed rear diff but still need the 6speed TC & DS.

+1
And actually you only need the front 1/3 of the drive shaft, not the whole thing.

Mine isnt going to be horrid

Do you think a stock output shaft will be able to handle basic bolt ons till i can afford the upgraded one?
I know it depends on my style of driving but this car is gonna be a daily and im not going to be launching it all the time or probably at all.

i'm looking to maybe swap the 6speed for the 5speed too but i want to becauce of how i actually have to use my 1st gear wen i slow down cause the 2nd gear will bog down and it's almost impossible to shift into 1st while car is moving at all
