Take some advice from an old timer , save the money on another box wait and go straight for a 6 speed uk sti box , done 3 boxes on my old 2.5 430bhp scoob , 2 were brand new and another was second hand , cost an arm and leg in the long run , go without for a while it worth it in the long run , hope that helps you make your mind up . :occasion14:

Dont PPG boxes keep your existing 5th gear? What happens if that goes into meltdown, or is 5th pretty much unbreakable. And I think they whine quite a bit, and with your rattling engine rebuild there could be some strange noises coming from your car!

It's only the straight cut gear kits that whine
