    You know what Tim, put a dogbox in the transmission, welding the shift selectors inside of the transmission would that make it not streetable? Like I said this is not a DD but I still want to be able to drive it on the street but I want you to do some research on the best gear ratios for 1, 2, 3, 4 for the 1/4 mile FWD, 525hp and a redline of 8500 rpm on a fast spooling(got a lot of mods to help spool) GT35R. On top of that bring anything on to the table 3000 dollars is my limit. How much do you want for a down payment 1000 dollars than when you finish it 2000 dollars sounds good? Just make sure to do all of that and anything you want to bring to the table message me. Thanks tim

    5th gear .72 Do these gears with 2G neon gears and and weld the shift selectors. I believe the 2g or the srt-4 had stronger gears but anyways if you could do this all Just tell me man.
