I recently swapped out my original Au xr6 transmission for a standard btr 93le & the difference is very noticeable between the two also.

Gear shifts are softer/smoother in the change over standard btr 93le, i suspect what Greg said applies to my transmission too. Anymore info on this at all Greg?

It looks like i may have to rebuild my original transmission, i definitely miss the way it operated.

Edit, i just read Gregs post above, the mystery continues lol!

Vortex-98, here's a link to a transmission for sale now out of a Au xr8 though its in Qld, maybe its worth a look -
