Vivid Racing Type RA Gearset Subaru WRX 02-07

In Stock and Ready to Ship

Vivid Racing gearsets come complete and ready to install in any WRX gearbox. Non-turbo applications can also utilize these sets but require an additional adapter kit. This is the least expensive way to substantially increase the reliability of the WRX gearbox. The Type RA gearsets feature the REM® isotropic superfinishing process (micro-polish) now treated entirely in-house. ISF® provides substantial benefits in terms of reducing gear tooth friction and eliminating surface imperfections (stress risers). REM ISF® is used extensively at the highest levels of motorsport (F1, WRC, Nascar). Our real world testing has shown huge improvements in reliability far beyond any other surface treatment we have tested. Type RA sets are close ratio sets for maximum acceleration and performance.

Type RA Sets include: main shaft & all forward gears, shaft lock nuts, front oil seal, 3rd/4th shift rail, 3rd/4th synchro hub, 4th synchro ring, 3.90 speedometer gear, and rear case gasket.

RST-1140 Type RA Gear Set for 5MT '02-'07Ratios -- 3.083 / 2.062 / 1.545 / 1.151 / 0.825)

Note: 2005 and newer applications must change the 1^st gear synchro to the earlier “single cone” type. Please call for more information.

Vivid Racing Type RA Gearset Subaru WRX 02-07 Reviews:

Posted on 02/25/2010 by by scott

"I recently had this gearset installed on my '04 WRX. After absolutley destroying my stock tranny, my main goal was to have a more durable gearbox without spending an insane amount of money for either a STI or dogbox transmission. According to various publications and reviews, this is the case with the Type RA gearset. What I wasn't expecting was the close ratio aspect associated with it. First, the pros.--there's a noticable difference in acceleraton times. Without using a stopwatch, I have very little doubt that at least a half second is knocked off my 1/4 mile time (from low 13s with the stock tranny compared to high or mid 12s with the Type RA). The RPMs are in the power band throughout the run, making my car an absolute joy to drive. Now the con.--fuel consumption is riduculous. Luckily for me, I don't do a lot of highway driving. Cruising at 70 mph, I'm sitting at almost 4000 rpm. This is due to, of course, the close ration aspect. I would recommend this gearset to anyone who's added significant HP and torque to his/her WRX, because let me tell you first hand. The stock gearset is WEAK. For $1800 or so, it sure beats going broke when paying $5000-8000 on a STI or dogbox."
