Cost of replacing with another 5 speed + then goto a 6 speed, will cost more than just going to a 6 speed the first time?

What sorta revs is it at on the freeway at 100km/hr?

For some reason, the notification emails went to gmail's spam box.

I'm gonna have funds ready for 6 speed now but I'm not gonna take the extra weight until I've blown a second box. And for the hell of it, I just might get PPGs.. (that sound )

In 5th it's about 3300 rpms (IIRC) at 100 km/h. And most of the roads I drive are limited to 80 km/h.

When this GB goes kaboom I will report here. I installed "blast plates" on this one (snake oil?). Let's see how long it lasts.
