i dont plan on beating it to death, i just want a dd. All i can find is autos around here. another question, what did the 6 speed trannies come in? can I hook one to a 1jz? and how much $?
6 speed = V160
Came in MKIV Supra TTs
Yes it will bolt to a 1JZ, and 2JZ, but that's it. The bellhousing is actually part of the transmission, so you cannot swap on a different one. It's a little difficult to fit into the MKIII chassis. The transmission tunnel needs some slight hammering to get it to fit. I'm not 100% sure, but I think the shifter is not in the best spot, but it does work. There's a website somewhere on the internet where a guy documented how he put a V160 into a MKIII. Also, the V160 wants a 3.2 rear-end. Tallest you can find for a MKIII is a 3.73 (I heard rumors of an aussie 3.5 though, anyone have info on that?). so, yhe 6-speed gears will be really short in a MKIII.
There is also a 6-speed transmission for the 1G motor. I can't remember the tranny code, it's a J something I think. The transmission is out of a Toyota Altezza. Not sure how it would fit in a MKIII, but I bet it's clsoe.
Out of curiosity, what sort of class wants you researching Supras
