Got a call from John at quad4rods last night. They are moving and the old number has not been ported over yet. They should be up and running in a couple of weeks. Thanks for the info.

Rangers never came with the T5. They just had the Mazda M5OD-R1.

i stand corrected, i remember that i went through this when i built my car and eventually dropped the t5 in favor of the mazda trans, memory isn't what it was, i got lost coming home the other day, or was it night?
