I must say this site is very informative and very interesting.I have read some of the transmission posts but i havent gotten a concrete answer.I am from jamaica i currently have a toyota trueno ae110(like a levin) not sure if u are familiar with it.Anyway i have a 3sgte engine from the caldina for my swap and i am a person who prfers bottom to midrange power not so much top end.I have heard conflicting stories that the e153 (3sgte) is best for top end however there was someone in the caribbean who used the v6 camry (e56)transmission he said he didnt like it as the ratios were too short and he made his power in fourth gear.Others in jamaica have done the swap but i cant get a hold of anyone to ask about best transmission.I am wondering since many of you have done this swap which would be a better gearbox for drag racing(please give the code tranny and from which car)As i say i prefer a very quick car not so much high speed plus jamaica is full of mountains and corners so not much highway runs.Which gearbox is best for this
