1st - Do you even know what manual tranny you already have? Is it a W58 (NA Supra) or an R154 (Turbo model)?
Your profile says W58.

2nd - How much power do you "think" you will be putting down? The R154 can handle it until you are well into the 500 HP range.

3rd - You need to search...this subject has been beat to death. And the 2JZ tranny (V160) is not a bolt on for the MkIII...period.

well right now i think i am putting down about 300 and i have the r154 but i hope to be putting down close to 700 when all said and done but that is not going to happen till a few years from now. but i allready ripped threw one this past summer because a am at the track every week so if there is any helpful up grades i would appreciate it
