Just a guess here, but I wouldn't be surprised to see the xi cars having the most transmission issues with tuned cars on down the road.

Anyway, I was only teasing about the RWD 6mt coupes being the only performance car
Not a big drag racer myself. Evo's and STi's were built for performance, but strength was their weakness. Transfer cases and trannys were not up to big power.

This may possibly happen, but with AMS now working on the 335 I'm sure we'll have some upgraded stronger parts if this does happen. Transfer cases I could see for sure.

I know since your the one with a Coupe, RWD, 6MT lol
