It feels broken, especially if you put a bigger turbo on the 2jz-gte. The W58 won't handle the power.

Thanks for replying. I hear you. I read on a technical section of a different Supra forum that the W58 can safely handle (I stand corrected with this figure) around 300rwkw (roughly 410HP) which is more than what the stock 2JZ-GTE puts out. By that they mean that you can open up the boost even more on a GTE and not worry about the tranny breaking if you're running it thru a W58. What do you think?

A completely stock 2jz-gte means stock turbos...and 410rwhp is right at what most BPU 2jz-gte's do (6spd). The record for a new 2jz-gte with new oem twins, bpu'd, is about 475rwhp. Personally, I'd never run a tranny that was right on the edge of breaking, but I guess that's your choice. I wish you all the luck in the world, because you'll probably need it. If you don't want to depend on luck, get the transmission that was designed to go with the 2jz-gte - the V160.

Wait a second, I never said I have or am going to buy a Supra Turbo with a W58, lol. I know that the V160 is the ultimate tranny for the Supra Turbo, no doubt about that. Reason why I asked is because, I have the option of buying a stunningly beautiful JDM '93 RZ 6MT BPU++ or wickedly beautiful JDM '95 SZ turned RZ 5MT APU+. The '95 Turbo with 5MT just makes me wonder what the torque and HP characteristics are since it's unusual for the "Big Boss" GTE to be mated to what was designed for the "Boss" GE. I'm already leaning towards the '93 but, it's still a hard choice to make...

The previous owner of the '95 Supra clearly had the money to buy a Getrag if he wished but, since he didn't, perhaps it was built stronger or just his preference...

Glad you're leaning towards not buying the SZ->RZ APU+ "Supra Turbo with a W58" 5MT . I'd be worried about what else wasn't upgraded on the SZ, like the brakes, ignition, suspension, etc.

Hehe, thought you'd say that. Alas, I am very impressed by the quality tuning work done on the Red Supra. Everything you mentioned has been given careful attention to. Would you like to know the list of mods to get an idea of what exactly has been done?? (You know you want to...) Of course, I'll give you the full run down of the RZ 6MT's upgrades as well which are oh, so nice
