Syncro'd 1st & 2nd, straight 3rd-6th?
All straight?
Syncro'd 1st and 6th only, 2nd-5th straight?

Difficulty of driving? (let's assume away any need for daily drivability)
Cost vs. other options?
Neat, novel, cheshire-cat-can't-wipe-the-grin-off-your-face factor?
Availability with consideration towards shipping costs?

Straight gears are awesome becuase the load they place isn't directly on the bearings.

Unfortunately they have absolutely horrible gear whine kinda like that reverse gear noise

If you plan on drivability i would sugguest picking up one of the RA gearsets which should handle pretty much any mod you could possibly put into the car, though the 6 speed is pretty damn strong as is. The first couple of gears should be straight for those hard launches then i would sugguest synchro for the rest of the gears just for drivability.

Quite a few sites on the homepage list gearsets and their prices i sugguest you check them out. They do tend to be pretty expensive though.

I know alot of people said they were happy with their 5mt being setup with RA gears and liked the smoothness of them but i haven't heard of anyone with a 6mt doin it yet.

just my .02
