07 getting new tranny
so my car developed a nasty grind into 6th gear, took it into the dealer, and new tranny time
i guess they couldn't get the tranny right for the 07's either, they should have sourced the tranny out to borg warner like they did with th bullet proof z32 tranny, a getrag tranny would be nice to. anybody ever consider making an adaptor plate to mate the getrag 6 speed out of a supra to the vq???

As far as an adapter plate that would be something that would have to be custom fab more than likely. Would be nice to toss in a bullet proof 1k rwhp geared getrag

sounds like someone should have bought themselves an auto, since they can't properly shift (which is the main cause of most manual transmission failures) being this is such a new car

improper shifting may be the cause of most tranny failures, but the z has a rep for crappy tranny's
and besides, its 6th the crapped out, i've always lazy shift into 6th cause there is never a need to shift hard or fast into 6th, so it couldn't have been driver error
