The worst part of the install is going up and down with the trans a few times and figuring out exactly where to tap some spots in on the tunnel. Other than that, It's pretty straight forward. A $6k budget will get you 90% of the way there with just a few more additions to purchase, like drive shaft, shifter, twin clutch, etc. I run the CC twin and you can do the same, they have a kit for this swap now but you'll need to get your throwout bearing through Clutchmasters or you can go with Spec twin and tell them you need the t56 discs to run with the s2k twin clutch.

why the rsx speed sensor?

Spoolin

Not too sure other than maybe it being a bit longer and the pickup a bit different. It's what Import Muscle said needed to be used.

hey OP how street friendly is your set up now? can u duplicate your trans build? thanks

Spoolin

I don't have it installed yet but others have stated it drives great. All parts are readily available and easy to source.

you down it yourself or with a shop?

Spoolin

Yeah, I will be doing all work myself.

I need a shop in my area that understand this stuff not just a regular tranny shop otherwise it'll be a nightmare. I'm from NJ but I can travel or ship the car.

Was this ever figured out? Is the Import Muscle kit necessary?

Spoolin

Yes, it is needed to be able to get a signal off the trans for the speedometer. If you have an ECU like the Infinity, I believe you can use the ABS sensor to run the speedometer as an alternative option and I believe that is what Carey Bales is doing with my car and the Samsonas trans we ended up going with.

BTW, my brand new T56 setup is for sale if you know anyone interested. It comes with everything needed for the install, even the MGW shifter, IM speed sensor kit, rear mount, Quicktime scatter bell, etc.
