Looking for feedback on transmission options for a traditional style 7 build. My gf and I want to build a 7(GBS Zero) here in SoCal and then ship it to the UK for a 2 week road trip in the future. If we can visit race tracks as well that would be even better.
It seems like the typical combo now days would be a 2.5L Duratec and an NC miata trans. I really like this combo but part of my would prefer the powerband of a turbocharged engine and I'm considering the Honda L15b7 due to its compact size and powerband. Plus the noises it makes are fun. Options for transmission seem like NC miata, Honda S2000, BMW ZF from 90's 3 series, ecoboost mustang. Probably missing alot but these seem lighter weight and possibly able to handle the L15's powerband when turned up a little.
Curious what transmissions I might be leaving out or not thinking about. I see lots of opinions when googling but usually it's just anecdotal stuff.
Thanks, Grant
