Personally I think a V160 is a waste unless you plan on running 600+HP. The R154 can handle up to that just fine. Also, unless you change out your rear end ratio, you will actually have a slower top speed, and useless 1st gear. V160's use a 3.133:1 ratio, where as other ratios will probably be no less than 3.73:1.
The R154 came behind th 87-92 turbo supra.
The manual that comes behind the SC300 is the W series, which I have completed the pattern for that, and castings will be done this week. That tranny is good for about 350hp, so unless you plan on going FI with the a UZ engine, it will hold up fine.
R series trannies can be purchased for $100-$250. W series can be purchased for $50-$250. V160's, or the getrag 6 speed will cost you about $2,000.
