Default Manual transmissions to replace the nsg370 manual
Want something beefier and with less issues than the nsg370, wondering if there are any transmission that would be reliable and bolt up to the bell housing

Nope. Love it or hate it. There are a couple shops that can rebuild it and make it pure beef, but not cheap and not worth it unless you plan to run a ton of horsepower.

Its never been smooth. Its expensive to fix, clearly something wrong with the throwout bearing and shifter fork mechanism

Are you having issues with your clutch or your transmission?

just out of curiosity, how much does it cost to repair the transmission? Mine is going out and I am debating on fixing or buying used. I am thinking fixing is better since they are weak and a used one may crap out pretty quickly.
