I have a richmund gear 6 speed behind my big block and don't give a crap what it does to the resale (you can buy complete floorboards and tunnels tho)...  I drive my car hard and enjoy it.

even shifting from first to second is fun.   I have never seen anywhere that I couldn't have a better time with a stick than an auto except maybe san francisco and I abvoid that place like the plague.

The Richmond Gear box shifts really nice.  I'm coming from jp cars with ultra-slick shifters and I had no problem with it.  Richmond gear should make steering kits too.  :)
And I will never have an auto, and I never go to SFSSR.  :D

BTW Funked, a kid was runing a WRX STI ABC XYZ 123 R at the track. He had a funy sound everytime he was shifting, something like a loud "Pshhhhhhhhhht".

Does it has anything to do with some kind of turbo relief valve?

(kid put 4Gs in the car, said usually ran 13 secs, but this day he ran 14.68.)
Dat jugs bro.

Yeah it's a blow-off-valve.  14.68 lol, crappy driver or else he didn't know what he was doing with the mods.  Pretty funny either way.  Bone stock they can do low 13's with a good driver.
