this was covered before... in conclusion: it won't fit

This was disscused shortly before. In Korea they had a six speed option on the beta. Hopefully K-spec will eventually offer this. If I do a tranny swap I want to go six speed myself to make the swap worth while.

Real-Engineering.com sells final drive gears. I think one of them is slightly longer... it probably won't be too much of a difference however. You can calculate your engine speed with the ratios over there. You won't get better service with Rick, I highly recommend him as a seller for expensive parts like final drive ratios, built bottom-ends, etc.

The 6 or 8 grand it would cost to get a Beta 2 6 speed over here from Korea would NOT be worth it.

I was waiting for REDZ to chime in here... in all reality, if you really MUST have the six speeder.. Wait until Hyundai releases the beta powered GK with it's own six speed. Then you have two choices.. buy all the parts (ouch!) from hyundai.. or wait until a couple of get wrecked and buy the carcass off of eBay... the later is probably better. Cheaper and you get ALL the parts needed to do the swap.

hmmm... good idea mad-machine. I may just wait for that.

its not 6 or 8 grand.

i was going to do this last year around june. my uncle sent me a transmission that i thought was the 6-speed but he fudged it up. when i called him and asked, he told me that the transmission wasn't avaiilable for sale at that time. now it is. it costs around $1500 brand new. you could buy a round trip airfare to korea for a little over $1000

the only thing you would have to worry about is the bolt up. you want to get a blueprint of where the tranny sits in the car and then go with it.

the mechanic i talked to in korea told me that it could be done, no problem. he was actually working on doing that with a customer's car. i'll give him a call and see what he says.

i figure total, it would cost you a little over $3 grand to do the 6-speed swap

Ain't gonna work. They use different ECUs then we do... you'd have to swap to MAP, new wiring, etc. to use that ECU. the U.S ECU isn't going to work. If you live anywhere else in the world, its a different story.

Your crazy doode.

1500 for parts, 1000 for the flight over there to buy them, then shipping it back over. Not like a tranny is LIGHT you know?

Last time we checked, the tranny it'self is like 2300, with everything you'd need to do it. Box it up, ship it, pay for s/h and import fees.

Hell no.

Considering that S/H for a bodykit from Korea to the US is like 400 or more.
