Hey,
is it posible to put a mkIV 6 speed gear box into a NA MKIII supra. Looking at that instead of rebuilding the W58 thats in it.
Anyone know round about costs of one as well?

Not at moment but it is an option. Another question, do i need to get aftermarket camber kits when lowering my MA70 1.5 inches? or will standard ones be good enough

Another thing I'll think you'll find is that the V160 has an integrated bellhousing, so you'll have much difficulty in mating it to a M series block (ie behind a 7mge).
Good luck...why not put a 2jz-gte in at the same time?... 
Cheers

Stenno put a V160 in his MA71 Supra, and apparently it wasn't very difficult. He did put a 2JZ in at the same time though; using a V160 with a 7M engine isn't really practical.

you mean, if only you had 7000 dollars you'd almost have enough to buy a 2jz manual half cut

Actually, King offer 2 levels for most cars. Medium drop (25-40mm) and L.O.W. (35-60mm). -Check the ordering catalogue for details re: teh Superah
