The Rx8 box is a tricky one bud, the gear stick it half way into the dash and the gear ratios basically maens that 3rd 4th and 5th are slightly shorter so that 6th gear gives no massive advantage.
For a clutch look here: http://www.turboimport.com/catalog/rx7.htm
I got their ACT street set up and it\'s great, fantastic price but del took about 3 weeks.
