Doubt it. You'd probably be better off trying to convert it to RWD and throwing a T56 in there, lol.

It's a little more than just a RWD conversion though.

Hmm...interesting to see a 6 speed available, but I can find no reason for anybody to do it. Our ratios are excellent as is.

theres a lot of factors for a 5-6 speed conversion

Still waiting on a group buy...

I'm assuming a different shifter would be needed-that's probably the easy part though.

that would be more retarded because of the heavy weight of the t56 and then the rear end and all the factors that go into it, i do know some guys with arel atoms with the lsj's have some 6speeds.....only factor i have seen since ive been reading the orginal thread in 06 is the benefit of a longer 1st gear thus helping in the 1/4 mile. would be nice to see it done...hey aaron if you see this i got a question have anyone of your guys done this? or anyone you know?

If we can have a group buy bring the price down to like... 1k I'm in! I'd like the 6 speed just so I'm not cruising at almost 3k on the highway.
