Looks sweet man! Did you go with the double synchros or not? I only see one in the picture lol

Double synchros on 1,2 &3 since they didn't have any 4th in stock so I just did single there and all have needle bearings. Gerard had to order the synchros for me from Japan since when I looked them up through Montgomery Mazda online they crossed over to our OEM synchros as a replacement.
FYI 3 double synchros came out to $340US with the $3240 PAR set along with my bank charged $99 for a currency exchange fee?? So came out to more like $3700 plus I'm waiting for quotes on new bearings and seals and 3/4 shift fork!

Adds up quick , huh ? Make sure you get a professional transmission shop to put it all together.

I'll be doing this myself and although I don't have all the tranny terminology down I am the Sr. Design & Manufacturing Engineer and part of the day Machinist for a Mold tool and Die shop. I have everything I need and will be much more careful and precise than any of the monkeys I could have do it.
In that case, build yourself the tools you need to measure the tolerances as per this guide:
http://www.mazdaspd.com/resources/Transmission_Rebuild.pdf
I really urge you to triple check the tolerances, as not enough tolerance or too much will lead to destruction of the gearset...
BTW, if you do decide to build the tools for this, make two sets becuase I defiantely would buy a set from you !!!!

It looks like the only thing I'll need to actually make is the adapters to torque the input and output shaft for bearing pre-load for shims! Dial indicator and a lathe and feeler guages.
So is anything happening with a Bulk Buy? I also want these but money is tight.
I'll have 3 sets of 3rd and 4th gears soon enough.
Lookin good!
Exactly the set I am looking to get. Mazda wants $500, outrageous...

It looks pretty easy! I'm thinking of using my old tranny 5th gear and tack welding a deepwell socket to it. Bam done! Both shafts have the same spline!
I was talking more about the spacers to bring the diff up from the bottom casing to measure the shims needed, and the spacers that seperate the upper and bottom casing...

lol at 4k...
for my trans build i am getting 1-4 straight cut, 5 helical- longer gear ratios based on danas calculations, double synchros, quaife differential. ROFL @ 6k plus.

This is what they had in stock
QUOTE=shane02pro5;3634903]I'm about to order but can someone tell me what these ratios will translate to at 6500rpm's
3.11:1@6500=36mph
1.83:1@6500=62mph
1.24:1@6500=91mph
0.90:1@6500=125 mph
or give me the formula and I will calculate it!
Thanks[/QUOTE]

Haha, I'm planning on it.
I'll probably eventually pull my current engine and sell it, and build myself a new supertrick engine.
