There are Mk4 Supra's in the US doing 8 second passes on the stock 6-speed. How does the Toploader compare? I know very little about Ford stuff. Justen: considering the stupid amounts of torque you'll have on tap, I think a seriously built auto is your only option. Sure you can swap in a new W50 for next to nothing every time you smash it to bits, but do you want to be swapping gearboxes every other week? I don't know about you, but I hate swapping boxes and I avoid it as much as possible! If a manual box is an absolute necessity, I reckon you should save your pennies and pick up a V160. They are a seriously strong box and I'm sure it would be much nicer to live with than an ancient Ford 4-speed. I've already decided to go with one of these if I break the W58.
