Default SRT-4 in a 6 speed?

what do you think the SRT-4 would be like in a six speed? some people ive talked to said they would love it, personally i think we would spin a hell of a lot more with shorter gears....and i love longer gears, makes the turbo pull much more enjoyable!

thats the nice thing about torque... You dont need 6 gears. 5 is just plenty enough, less time on the clutch = lower E.T.

yeah, the SRT-4 is a torque monster... earlier i started mine and was wiping the snow off, and i never realized how good that stock exhaust really sounds...i just sat there listening to it! [sm=hail.gif]

MMMM, the sweet sound of combustion.......

I test drove a 6speed once, I believe it was the sentra specV, and wasn't too impressed with it. Not sure it did anything for the car.

this thread is pointless... you cant judge a car on how many speeds it has thats just stupid. 6speeds arnt that great with high torque situations so it would work fine for our cars but i dont think it is needed, but would be nice to have on the highway.

It might help it's pulling in the higher gears with an added gear, but I don't think the final drive ratio would be any different than what it already is.
