If you decide to sell your transmission and go to something new. I would consider the transmission from the toyota supra. I have personally owned 2 of them and it will hold up to what you have easily bone stock. The getrag v160 transmission is a 6 speed and there are tons of supras still running this trans stock because no one has upgrades for them and you never hear about issues with them. I have seen alot of guys talk about the weight of your car and the torque. Ryans supra has a stock trans in it weighed 3550 on the scales and has run 8.62@171 in the quarter mile with 1350whp to the ground and has not broke the trans yet. This tranny is a good one if you are considering a stock unit that will more than do the job for your car.
