It could be possible.

you would have to get one to find out. i'm sure it could fit but there would be a lot of crazy modding you would need to do to get it to mount right. also, since they are so new they would cost a lot more than likely.

how much of a difference. i have a/t. btwn gettin a 3rd gen 5spd & 5 gen 6 spd. Guesstimate...thanks

i really have no clue. there haven't been many, if at all, 5th gen 6 speeds around here for me to even look at the tranny. if i find out more i'll let you know.

Soul Fly

cool..thanks bro. HOLLA!

I wouldnt really think the extra gear would be all that much more beneficial. But if it can fit, go for it man

you would also have different gear ratios (at least i'm pretty sure) which would actually make your car a little faster. the only downside could be this tranny is for an engine that is pulling 255 hp so it may not be too good on our 160/190 hp engines, it may bog them down or something.

The 6 speed in the 02 and 03 max's is really ****ty- guys are getting them replaced all the time. It would be a waste of time and money with little or no gains. If you want a swap, put the VLSD 5spd from the VE maximas in- it will fit better and is a good tranny.

are you gonna be supportin that much power that you will be able to use all 6gears useufully?

My car came with a 6 speed: 1,2,3,4,5,and R (R=Really Fast) I wouldn't try it though. I have heard a few stories about the 6 speed in the 2K2s but you can kill any tranny when ******* it hard enough.

so after 5th gear, you shift it into R (R=Really Fast) ?? damn i'd love to see how fast your car goes in that gear
