Help... rx8 6speed question

Personally, I don't think these tranny holds up that well.. I took my 8 on a track and I had hard time shifting into 4th when the tranny got hot. I thought maybe changing out the fluid will help (I use Neo Synthetic) but didn't.

I have a spare tranny at home.. I'll see about the speed sensor.
