After reading all that Kristian and you still go the PPG you should not ask for advice

I'm guessing he is going to swap with Joey?

six speed would be my vote, 5mt still have case flex the 6mt doesn't way better design, and i heard porsche designed the 6mt enough said.

A person over east broke a six speed on rexnet forums, 3rd gear im sure. So they do break i think it was on track too.

Not many hearings of them breaking though

6 speed is a far better design for sure. The advantages are so numerous that I'm sure the only reason people still buy straight cut boxes is for the 'look at me' noise.
A good late model 6 speed box will be cheaper than a 5 speed with decent aftermarket gears and the necessary forks etc.
With a 6 speed you get a front LSD thrown in for free.
Option of DCCD for fug all extra.
6 Speed is NOT 40 KG heavier, compare 5 speed with front LSD and DCCD and the difference is more like 30KG. You can easily lose 5 KG off the flywheel anyway.
There are many reasons other than gear strength that 5 speeds fail. Dog boxes get stuck in gear, stuck in neutral, jump out of gear, get 2 gears at once, break output shafts, break transfer gears, break front pinions, etc.
The shift linkage on a 6 speed is all supported on linear bearings, if it's notchy it probably has the wrong oil.
6 speed has a sump, filter, oil pump, pressure fed bearings, optional oil cooler. 5 speed only has splash fed bushes on 1 & 2.
As for the old 6MT can cop it at the drags. Bullshit. Get the right one and it'll do 126 MPH in 4th @8000 R/min.
Having said all the above I still use a 5 speed dog drive in my competition car, because that's where they are best. Cars that do less than 2000 Km a year where weight and clutchless shift is of more importance than anything else.

Major wiring harness changes Steve?

The box has 2 wires, it doesn't even care which way around they go. Just buy an aftermarket controller ($200 upwards) Power wire, Earth wire, handbrake switch wire and you're done. Or get a controller and loom from a Version 2 and it's just power and Earth to snip of the fuse box, everything else plugs in.
