possible- yep.
youll have to swap your existing box, driveshafts, flywheel, clutch and i think slave cylinder. i know the 6speed clutch kits are pricey
wirth it? (in my own opinion) not really but only as the clutch kits are flippin pricey! hopethat helps
i think i love you.....

What revs are you doing when at 70mph?

My 130 sat at 2000rpm so if your 5 speed sits at the same rpm it wont be worth doing
