6 speed tranny.
After taking out the tranny in my car I was wondering wheather or not you could actually put a six speed in there?
I wonder this because I also have a 4x4 and changing out gears in those for bigger tires doesn't seem like a big deal.
So, could you modify the gear ratio so that 1st and 2nd were the get up and go gears, 3rd and 4th were stock
and 5th and 6th were the: "Oh my god, I'm going to ******* die!", gears
Hopefully someone won't way this costs about half a million.

It will have to be entirely custom unless you buy a prefabbed unit like the HKS, and trust me, its not worth it. An extra 5th and 6th gear does jack all unless you have the power to use the extra overdrive (400 hp or more), except increase your coolness factor.

I see no reason why its not possible. Mabey get a shop to modify a bell housing adaptor and ze drive shaft?
Though scathcart did make a good point about the power requirements.
