I'd Prefer the 4m-e/5m-e fuel injection

People prefer autos who dont know how to drive a manual, you can keep your auto box i personally would much rather change my onw gears

Thats almost the bigest load of crap I have ever heard!

I would much rather find the fastest smoothest way thru a corner then be stuffing around changing down gears trying to match the exit speed of the corner, I dont know maybe its the fact your yet to experence something with decent grunt, I know all too well about 4/5m's - you have time to open your can of coke and drink it between changes unless there SERIOUSLY modded, even then with such a flat torque/power curve its far from fussy about what RPM you pull out of a corner with.

Now you look at norbies case, a High powered turbo car thats driven dayly, im shure he could find something else beside a gearbox to spend $5000 on For 5000 you could get a auto for nothing rebuild it for about $1500ish (if it needed it *unlikely*) shift kit is about $300-400? that would leave about $3000 that he could get a motec for and then he can even set the points he wants the auto to shift at

and if you have to replace your clutch gearbox and diff monthly you certinaly do not know how to drive. (unless your at the quater every day)

Hello 4m Vs high powered car again! a high powered car puts much more stress on a driveline for example GT's 2jz eats a 5M/7M-GE clutch like a cookie from subway, easly fixed with bigger/heavyer clutch/pressure plate if this was a dayly driver tho dave would end up walking funny with a strong left leg from the heavy clutch pedal

Now norbie can do the big clutch/R154 thing (or V160 if his bank manager likes the look of his ass) but again what will go next Thrust washer, Clutch.. will he need some fancy twin plate $$$$$$? does he want to have cramps in his leg from a clutch pedal so heavy it belongs in a truck? then are the sharp unloading/loading forces of a manual going to turn his F series diff into 7.5inchs of metal clunks? or half shaft into two halfs of a half shaft?

You should REALLY look at both sides of the coin before you comment Manual is the be all and end all of transmissions, if it was Formula 1, porsche, BMW, Toyota etc etc etc are all wrong and you should write them a letter telling them that.
