boosted 1g GS300 @ street legals

When it was on its way on the interstate leaving the track, the guy didn't use any of the power the car had if it was turbo to get up to speed. the FMIC was huge, but I guess that doesn't mean anything.

my question is how sturdy is the stock trans in one of those? im guessing its the same one used in the auto n/a supras?

I am pretty sure it's a manual, seeing as how every time I see the car, I hear the BOV during gear change. So my guess is that it's an NA-T, probably a single turbo since most 2JZGE guys go that route. Probably a 5 speed. Who knows though, it could be a 600hp 2JZGTE + 6 speed getrag swapped in, haha.

Because, when properly built they can be as fast or faster in the 1/4 mile as a manual transmission. Don't believe me? Ask Dave (supra)/Matt (supra-powered RWD probe) /Jeremy (talon) /Myself (wrx...I'm by far the slowest in the bunch) for a ride if/when you see us out sometime.

Oh yeah i believe they can be as fast or even faster but in my view, i love kicking in that clutch, i guess when it all comes down to it, it is all about the other persons style.
