FS5R30a Rebuild - Speedtek Close Ratio

Speedtek Close Ratio FS5R30a and lockout shifter

We had a few sidetracks, but the Speedtek transmission is all together. It should be going into Nismo 500 to replace the OS88 that stopped selecting reverse.  While installing the OS88, I jammed the lockout release a bit.  Have to check it out, make sure its all working correctly. The truth about a sequential transmission is that it is a race car part, and requires race car service intervals. It was never intended to be used on a street car.  They are fun, but just know it will be in and out more often than a stock synchronized transmission.  Since I bought the OS88 used, its also to be expected. Its a pretty early version.  Once we get it out to look at it, will look a little more into upgrades.
