Hey everyone I don't exactly have it yet, but u was wondering if anybody could give me advise in what to look for. I'm going to be buying a '02 formula ws6 tq with the 6 sp mani trani and I was wondering was this a good platform car and how well everything holds up. Thanks for any advise.
it's a great platform to start out with. if drag racing most go with an auto, with a large stall.
Well, for now its my dd and hobby. I'm selling my 08 tacoma xrunner to get out of payments but I still want something with plenty of gonads. Somebody told me that the 6 sp trannies were crap, is this tru.
i have one with 107k on it. just had to change clutches.
i have an auto with a 4k stall.
If you don't mind me asking what are the stock # for a ws6. Now I was reading another thread that stated that the 6 sp can't handle much more than stock power, is this tru. Reason I ask us because if u buy the car I want to put a s/c on it shortly after purchase.
4l60e will crap out early without a few upgrades...and the rear diff if you have too much grip t56 can handle mods...not a serious amount of power but plenty for street
FYI, the last year Formulas were offered w/ WS6 was 2000.Quote:

yep the 6 speed manual is way stronger than the 4L60e in stock form.
