From what I have read the 6 speed hold up much better. Can anyone verify/ elaborate?

Yes & magic.

And apparently the MSM specific 6speed has shot peen gears, but who knows.

Hificruzer226

is this a direct swap to an na6? Would you wanna use the starter from the same type of motor that comes with a 6 speed?

5 speed is usually good to 225-250 ft/lbs hard use. I ride my **** way too hard.

6 speed is usually good to 325-350 ft/lbs hard use. I expect mine to go below 300 ft/lbs. Which is why I'm working on a T5 swap.

Hificruzer226

T5 LOL. Who makes an adapter? Are you fabbing?

I think the Miata is perfect for an 8l45 with paddles.

Even though its auto and heavy its fairly responsive and has plenty of gears for these rev happy engines

Thats the plan.

That sounds horrible. I want my gear lever.

Drive an ats 3.6 .. Though I'm interested in how your set up turns out!

I drove an ATS-V and a CTS-V. Both were equally boring without a third pedal.

BEGI, in a far future parallel universe. There are some kits on eBay though.

Sacrilege.
Aidan can break bowling *****. He needs something cheap and indistructable, and is willing to suffer more than most. A 5 speed will hold up fine for your stated goals. A 6 speed handles 90% of the successful high-power builds on this forum.

If your bored with an ats-v or cts-v than you fail permanently

Just cuz your miata is slow, doesn't mean other peoples are slow too.

My miata is the slowest turbo car on this forum atm with the fact it has 0 psi. Unless you weren't talking to me

Wut?
A 1.6 car with 5 speed is more fun than nearly anything without a clutch.
That's why these cars are popular.
It certainly isn't because they're fast.

Hificruzer226

I cant tell who is talking to who? The miata is one of the best drivers car of all time even if 100hp. But there is no way you can't have fun with an ats-v or cts-v auto or manual.

It's fun to mash the pedal a few times and feel the power. But the experience is nothing compared to a well set up Miata.
