Both boxes have been proven to run into the 9 second zone in VL's, but those guy's wont tell us how many they've blown to get there LOL. For a mild street combination, you can't go wrong either way man.

Use the rb25. Better throw, stronger, and smoother as it has double syncros. Sell the mx7

yeh def sell the old hardware n make way for the new the way i see it, u'll end up like me, puttin good money into the mx7, only to find urself puttin more good money towards a 33 box down the track.. in every respect they outdo the vl box - 6-8 years newer, longer 1st gear, dual sychros - ya laughin :P
