Welcome, great looking car.
How does that 6 speed and 4:30 gear work out for you ?
I have a supercharged XP car that I know the 5 speed will die before long.

Welcome, dude!

I was expecting to see an actual slow NB based on your username haha. Car looks rad! Care to share a few details on your suspension/tire setup? Haven't talked to a lotta guys with full autocross builds.

Starting in second and having peak torque come early is great the car loves third and has a relatively higher mph and reacts nice.

Based on your initial post, I thought your parents had given you a really odd first name ("Names").

Nice car, more details required (eg. ECU)!

Add them to your signature or include a build thread link.

Welcome!

I ran that combo (6-speed/4.3) for sprinting/TA, found that I lost a bit of time on the longer straights, needed to rev another 500/1000rpm to not be rpm-limited, but most of my circuits had short straights and it was good on those. Mind you, it was a lot better than the 6-speed/4.7 I tried briefly!!

I came for the slow NB, but I stayed for Duke.

Welcome man. And that car definitely looks like a fast NB.
