Default 5 speed race transmission? is there one??

ok i can find parts to build up the motor the axles, turbos, clutch'sbut what about the tranny? i cant find anything for it as far as higher top end speed. im getting a Stack Type ST8100 Dash Display to know true speed over 120 lol. does any one know the top speed for the stock tranny... and not what the top speed of the car is but what the tranny can hold up to.


if any one knows anything please let me know

its not the tranny that limits the mph to 110 its the PCM that limits it but the ACR does not have a limiter.

correction:

the 95 acr has NO limiter and all other acr's and r/t's have a limiter of 130mph.

any other neon (1st gen) has a limiter of 118mph.

Just ms it... bye bye speed limiter... plus all the added bonus of fuel and spark control.... If you plan on making your car go that fast the last thing you need to worry about is the transmission... and no there is no "high performance" 5 speed's

The Neon manual transmission is a five-speed unit that comes in three varieties, as described in the table below.
[ol][*]The standard transmission, used in SOHC cars.[*]The original performance manual (Performance Manual A), used in all ACRs and R/Ts, and 1995 DOHC cars. It has a slightly taller final drive than the standard transmission, & a lower-ratio 5th gear to improve acceleration in 5th. It turns about 3500 rpm at 73 mph in top gear.[*]The second performance manual (Performance Manual B), an option for the Sport & Expresso models. It has the same final drive as Performance Manual A for better acceleration than the standard MTX, but has the standard MTX's higher-ratio 5th gear for improved highway fuel economy. [/ol]
The clutch disc diameter is 215mm. The OEM clutch comes in two varieties:
[ol][*]standard (with separate plates and a different back plate)[*]modular (package unit, same back plate as the ATX) [/ol]
The standard clutch was used in all '95 m/y MTX cars built in either plant. For '96 m/y and newer cars, the Belvidere plant switched to the self-contained modular clutch, while Toluca continued using the standard clutch through the model run.

for about 500 bucks you can take apart your transmission and get all your gears cyro'ed for added strenth... but thats about it...

there is one other type of transmission that is not listed...

there is a transmission for the imports that had a really tall 4.12 (???) final drive...

ORIGINAL: DOHCgarrett t3

Thought the limiter was 118mph? I've done 117 in my car and didn't hit a limiter...

hmm my last neon i got off a kid who put a gs-t motor in it with 8 pounds of boost and 175 shot nos and raced my buddy and at 145 i was still pulling on him.

the car was a 99 r/t real one made in mexico not shure on the turbo just that it was pushing 8 pounds and it came with 2' 15 pound bottles.
