Hello everyone i am a nub when it comes to supras i am getting my first 2jz tonight so bear with me.
I have a 69 datsun 510 that i am swapping this jdm twin turbo 2j into and im just wondering what transmission would be the best bang for the buck on the setup because im looking to slowly build the motor after i get it all setup in the car and i am making this car into mainly a drag car so i wanna make some real power out of it and i know that the stock block is really stout.
Iv heard and seen a lot of the guys that are running fast using GM trany's in their cars such as a built turbo 400 so im just curious how strong the stock auto trany's and stock 5 speed supra tranys are? Cuz if i am not mistaken you have to buy some sort of adapter kit to bolt the trans up to the block correct? would this be a good way to go? I just dont wanna swap a stock supra auto trans into the car and then when i get up around the 500whp range blow it out of the car. Like i said Im a total noob when it comes to supras and such so just lmk what ya think bout the setup and what would be best because it will be mainly a drag car but i wanna be able to give the beat down on the weekends lol thanx again for the imput
