No, not the one that the guy had locally. I just didn't think it was worth 1800 with no other accessories. He wouldn't budge on price. Any idea what he wants for the t56? Or a link? Thanks!

Bringing this thread back from the dead...

I ended up never getting a TR6060, as other projects came up. I am now looking again, and have a few more questions.

I have found someone that is doing an auto swap, and may be interested in selling me his TR6060. Its from a 2010, so it has the .63 6th gear. Would this be much of an improvement for fuel economy over my current TR3650? One of the reasons I'd like to get this swap done now is to save some on gas, as I am planning a 5000 mile road trip at the end of the year. (I know the swap is not worth it just for fuel economy, but I have been wanting to do the swap anyways).

The guy also has an RXT clutch/flywheel. I know this will work with my car, but will it be extremely stiff? I am not planning to make huge HP any time soon.

Your tune will need to be updated for the gear ratios, or cruise won't work in all gears that matter.
No clue on the RXT

The RXT is not stiff at all. My Exedy Mach 500 with my 3650 was stiffer than both my RST and RXT clutches. The RXT is barely stiffer than the stock clutch.

I've never been blessed with the discipline to drive at reasonable highway speeds to really see a fuel economy difference but the RPM is a few hundred lower with the 6 speed when stuck behind traffic.

Stock 3650 is 0.67 5th versus 0.63 6th, so really that's not enough to make a mpg difference.

RXT is not stiff but it is a little grabby. RST is smoother. Like RED09GT said they are both easier clutch pedal than an Exedy 500. I've had all 3 of these clutches in the same car.

Plus I've been all over the cruise thing. TR6060 6th gear cruise works, its close enough to 3650 5th. TR6060 4th gear will work its 1:1. I think 3rd works too, I don't remember for sure right now. TR6060 5th will not work with cruise. I've had 3 different tuners try it, including Lito and none made it work. One tuner even showed me the trans gearing table and it was correct for 6060. Plus no one that I've talked to personally with a 6060 has 5th gear cruise. There's always someone who says that someone they know made it work. But I've never actually found or talked to that someone, if they even exist.

But overall the 6060 is a good trans.

The gear min/max values need to also be adjusted. (If available)
If gear min/max is not mapped in the software, setting ratio has no effect.
