    I mean you'll still be faster with the 6-speed 4.3FD than you are now, but you can always buy the a2 trans then just sell the 4.3FD to make your money back for the 4.7FD. But only problem with the 4.7FD your gonna need more money to get a TSX 6th cause rpms be too high with the 4.7 vs 4.3 in 6th gear.

    Well matters how much boost your making

    Cause my boys car is boosted but no huge turbo kit just basic bolt on kit and he had a stock A2 tranny and we swapped it out with another A2 tranny (seller told us stock gears and quaife LSD) but it ending up having a 4.7FD and his car is faster with the 4.7FD vs the 4.3FD

    How much power is he making? Because my setup is just a basic turbo kit, GT30, and I definitely prefer the 4.3, I can cross the line without having to shift into 5th at the drag strip and run more boost in every gear.

    Wait so people would actually be willing to straight trade 4.3 for 4.7 FD? Because I have a spare 4.3

    I mean I traded my 4.7FD for a 4.3FD + 30 bucks when I pulled the 4.7 outta the trans back in the day. I thought that was a pretty fair trade. I mean I know the 4.7 is better but is the price difference really that much between the two?? Maybe I gave that a kid a killer deal 0_o



    EDIT: KSP has the 4.3FD for $296 and the 4.7FD for $354 so I mean straight trade isn't all that unfair of a trade...... I'm sure you could find someone.
