Nice thread, change over from 5-speed towards the 6-speed, are there more differences between the V161 and V160,
Because the next step i want to get accomplished in the following year is the gearbox change over from 5-speed towards 6-speed,the engine is already been done but can't running more then 350 bhp because of the gearbox(W58) which can only handle (safely)approximately 260 rwkw, if you must choose between the V160 or V161 Which one would you take and why. The only thing I’ve found was the thread started by Alex in FAQ’s and Guides with the speeds calculated in the different gearboxes and gears, came out that the highest top speed can be reached with the V160. But couldn’t really find out which gearbox is really the best in overall when coming into a daily drive supra.
I was reading this thread and maybe anyone would have some more details or theory when coming to the differences between the 6-speed gearboxes.
