Tonight I raced a friend in his WRX and held my own until I realized I had shifted FOUR times and he was still in SECOND. Now I'm not jumping out to get a transmission rebuild just because I got whomped in the higher end, but I am going to be doing a pretty extensive rebuild on my bug and would like to change the gearing so I can get longer pulls in my car. So I guess what I am really asking is has anyone done this? And also, where can I find parts? I know HPA puts long gears in their VR6 swaps, surely there is something for the 1.8T five speed transmissions, right?
