Newbie question, I guess, but...

How many folks here have manuals in their 80's?

Or wait,

6 speed *auto*??

So confused...
 
Go ahead. :eek:

I'm always onboard for feedback on somebody else's dime. :D
 
Oh, sure, go ahead and dare me... :D

CJF, there were no manual transmissions installed in USA spec 80 series.... they all have 4 speed automatics. Some foreign markets received a five speed... The new Tacoma transmission is a 6 speed manual.
 
wel bjowett,

It seems that you've been double dog dared. As far as I can tell that means you HAVE to do it. Keep us posted.
 
Will the Tacoma 6 speed become to the 80 what the H55F has become for the 60 and 40 series guys???

DO IT! and report back please or better yet, I could come down and hold your beer and watch :D
 
The first thing to do would be to research the gear ratios on the manual tranny. See if they are even close to where we'd want them to be.

I imagine that a series of adapters would be needed, but that would be very kewl.

Car and Driver lists the ratios as:

Gear / Ratio /
I / 4.17 /
II / 2.19 /
III / 1.49 /
IV / 1.19 /
V / 1.00 /
VI / 0.85 /

Not so mewbie. The question might be..."How many folks here know how to operate a manual transmission?"

I think a manual transmission will ruin the silky smoothness of the 80! Just my opinion, but i personally love wheelin' with an automatic; no pedal juggling on offcamber or crazy positions.
