The European Market version you can buy today does. Word is that that other powertrains will be used in different markets, including when it is finally released in the US.

Qualife will re work your tranny for free and install the gear set. There are a few extra parts during the install that are not able to be re used. So for the purchase price of the gear set, and then shipping to get your tranny re worked, in addition a few more $ for the non re usable parts.
PM us if you would like to get this going on your transmission

you can get a brand new lsd equiped stock trans for 2300. Used for around a grand. This reminds me of the wrx gears from ppg. really expensive, but atleast those are a lot stronger. I'd have to replace my trans twice to pay more than this is going to cost(45k hard miles on stock open diff trans). I think this is a good idea, its just really really expensive. These cars just took a huge hit in value because of the new ss/tc that is coming. So your talking about a trans that is going to cost more than a 1/4 of the value of the car.
My vote..if they could drop the price to 3500(with lsd cause i don't see why anyone would replace the trans and not get a lsd)...which i'd still consider expensive becasue it isn't proven, they would probably be able to move a lot more units at a smaller profit, but atleast they would move.
Whoever at quaife that thought this was a good idea at that price range really dropped the ball here. Most people that own these cars are probably 17-25..most of them with little money to spend on car upgrades because of school bills, car payment..ect.
Another idea is scrap this 6spd idea and make a stronger 5 spd unit with diff gear ratios and a lsd for less than the price of a brand new unit.

The case is strong enough, it is the OEM gears that are allowing movement, putting extra force on the case. By having stronger gears this shouldn't be the case.

The F35 isnt a fragile little flower , it will actually take far more than stock power levels .
