JustenGT4 Forums Junkie Location: Canberra Registered: June 2003	Re: W50 versus W58 Thu, 04 September 2003 05:20 Michael, I have a mate with a W50 with upgraded bearings behind his 1U. Not running as yet but rod Hatfield reckoned no probs. So if yours is n/a and you don't plan too many mods a W50 is a nice cheap option. Dellow and castlmaine rod shop use the same bellhousing as the W58 but drilled for the W50. Mine will have twin turbos so a slightly different kettle of fish. Basically i'll have enough hp to break any easily obtainable box so i'm trying to balance cost with freq of replacement. An R154 is not good for this reason, plus they have an ugly shift and are big power sappers by all accounts. If there's not much difference between a W50 and 58 then the 50 is the way to go. The W50 has the best shift of any of the Toyota boxes i reckon. Dave - Thanks for that mate, good info. Big torque will always hurt 5th because of the loading so that's not a major concern, you just have to be gentle with 5th Good to know that's the only gear that went. With the 3.7:1 diff gearing i want 4th will be good for near on 200kph anyway so 5th will be a true overdrive and not used for big power acceleration. [Report message to a moderator]
