moike and MPJ are teh isht...their installed price for the RA gears can't be beat, plus they are great peeps too.
if you REALLY want the 6MT, save the stress and just get an STi, like I did, because you WON'T want to pay for that swap!

Sure these a warranty, it's the same as the lactory warranty. That means no for those less smart. They would probably warranty there work but not the parts. If they put it together wrong and it goes BOOM, then they would probably fix it. But if it was installed adn put together properly adn goes BOOM, then they probably couldn't help you. I don't work there or speak for them but that is the common way aftermarket stuff is dealt with.

We have a limited warranty on the tranny but too be honest we can't warranty the gearsets beyond that as there are many factors that come into play when these things get broken, dare I say some drivers suck!

All too many of them in fact. But I assume like silver arrow said, you'd replace/fix anything that broke if it was install error or something wrong with a part. The stock trannys can last forever if you treat them right. I can power shift, downshift @ speed, you name it, all day long and some- no ill effects. They're just a bit touchy
Like Mike said, I guess it just depends on the driver.

Rallysportz - We warranty the gearsets in full against any installation type issues, just not manufactures defects.

For anyone considering a gearset/tranny swap, I have created a spreadsheet in Excel of the most common WRX gearsets (gimmie, kaaz, RA, etc.) that shows you MPH in each gear at 500 rpm intervals. There's also a section to calculate RPM at a given MPH (say you want to know what the RPM's will be with the RA gearset at 80 mph in 5th gear).
All you have to enter is your tire sizes and final drive ratio. You can also play around with the gear ratios on the last table which includes room for 6 gears.
If anyone wants this, send me an email.

4th gear redlines somewhere about 105ish mph for me, I havent topped out 5th yet, but it looks like its probably under 140
