That's a fantastic improvement in the fuel efficiency! But I'm curious about the issues JR referred to. What were the things that were missing/not supposed to be in there??
Good video man. So many questions. Please share the total cost. Will you do a follow up video, after after driving a long distance, and burn a full tank of fuel? Hope you also do an info video on the parts needed for the 6th gear upgrade. Thank you for sharing. 🤟
I wish all of us some luck with actually getting even a ballpark, on the total installation cost. I've asked nearly everyone, that posts about the 6th gear addition. Silence across the board. 🤷
to my understanding (not a lot), because the gear ratio’s allow it, thats why a 6th gear can be added to the element’s transmission. can the same be done in a awd crv transmission? big picture is a rsx awd conversion w crv trans/diff and this added 6th gear i want to add to my list. anything helps!!
Thats a huge improvement on the mileage ! Keep the information coming
Great video. Joseph is the man!
He really is! Thank you element44
Thank you, I'll look again,I didn't see the parts list.

Many Thanks!!
Of course thanks to element44 honestly
I deff gotta road trip down to get the Element lifted from these dudes!
Yeah! Where are you from bro? JR is the man!
@@StephenAldaco Portland! Cool to see you get a couple more MPGs out of your manual trans one with the added gear. The tan/khaki color is nice!

I can do a follow up video. I listed most of the parts down in the description minus the tsx gear box.
Ditto here. What'd it cost and how much California gas did you have to buy to make it back with the fuel mileage increase?
A used transmission plus the rebuild parts for the awd transmission and JR’s labor
I want to know the cost too. I want this bad on my E.

you're now ready for cross-country
Heck ya I am so ready 💪
Dude I need this so badly. I got mine for safety and practicality, but I'm finding the mileage pretty bad at highway speeds.
Yeah it’s definitely not the best so far I am pretty happy with the upgrade. I am excited to do my first long road trip soon to see how she handles.
I always find myself reaching for the sixth gear on the highway. How did he handle the reverse lockout?
I need you help, u got manual trasmisión honda element 2006. Is 2wd I need put 4wd.. How can you hepl., what other piezes a need to put On?

can you install a lsd into a non lsd bell housing ?
Joseph is lucky I’m not closer or I’d throw all my money at him for stuff. 😹😹😹
LOL he’s an hour and some change from me and yes he gets plenty of my money too haha. Btw I had a sea salt coffee the other day thank you 🥰
Are there any updates for the automatic version? Have an 06 of that matters.
The 06 auto has a 5 speed which was the first year they offered that upgrade. So you have the best version of auto out there nice job 👍
Hey Stephen, Is there a physical lockout preventing you from going into reverse or do you just have to be really careful going into 6th?
Stephen, I have a 2003 CR-V 4wd 5-speed. Curious about ballpark cost including sourcing a TSX gearbox. Thanks
Hey I paid 400 for the internals! It came out of a tsx
What’s the Cost to do this? Did you do a lockout so it has no way to mis shift into reverse?
Just curious if this would be possible in n '05 (4 speed) Element?
If would take a lot of work because your element is an auto. Better to sell your element and rebuy a manual one
Was there any shim or clearance checks needed when changing this 1 gear?
So the 6 speed internals will fit in a 5 speed case?
Yes 👍 the tsx internals
What vehicle did the 6 speed come out of? I would like to see you Put a limited slip front and rear in the same vehicle.❤❤😊
TSX
Its a turd gear. I did it. It's nice to keep RPM's down, but you def have to downshift to tackle any hills, even just long inclines.
TSX
Yeah I haven’t really done any long drives just yet but I made it to lax & back with 20 mpg with all my gear up top pretty happy about it
Rosa could do it lol
