Does anybody know what kind of power a ST204 tranny could handle? Lets just say i swapped in a second generation 3s-gte and ran nitrous for racing purposes....would that be a little too much for it to handle or would it be fine? A stronger clutch would be a must, but what about ways to strengthen the tranny like stronger axles, etc....or a different transmission altogether like the 3s-ge?

the tranny itself will hold up to about 300hp, no traction though and you have to be REAL careful about launching it (meaning don't). There's an LSD you can buy for it from TRD I believe. The axles, however, will not hold worth ****. Would need custom axles, like from driveshaftshop.com The 3sge tranny is better all around, can hold more HP w/o fear of breaking.
