Getrag 6 speed transmission (V160 & V161) The Getrag used in the Supra is the Getrag 233, 6 speed gearbox, which is made by Getrag in Germany.
Type - 233
Torque capacity - to 490 NM (361 ft/lb)
Centre distance - 85mm
Weight - 51.0 kg
Factory - Nissan GTR 6 spd, Toyota Supra NA 6 spd, Toyota Supra TT 6 spd
Gears - V160 (3.827,2.360,1.685,1.312,1.000,0.793, Rev 3.280) - May 1993 to May 1996
Gears - V161 (3.724,2.246,1.541,1.205,1.000,0.818, Rev 3.192) - June 1996 to July 2002
NOTE: Although only rated to 361 ft/lbs by Getrag, this gearbox is used in cars putting out up to 600 ft/lbs of torque, but as with any gearbox, the more you exceed the rated torque capability, the quicker the gearbox will wear out, or if the torque is too high, something will break. On the street, its almost impossible to break the Getrag gearbox as wheelspin will occur before the breaking point is reached. On the drag strip with sticky tyres, it is possible to break the Getrag, if running 500rwkw or more. Normally the syncros will give up the ghost before something breaks as they take the main punishment during gear changes on the high HP cars.
Getrag 6 speed transmission noise The Getrag 6-speed gearbox is made to handle over 600hp. Like most gearboxes of this calibre, finesse is not one of its strong points. Here are the normal sounds for the 6-speed:
1. Rattle at low rpms, sounds kind of like there's a heap of rocks or ball-bearings in there. 2. The odd thump that seems to occur when you put it into 1st gear. 3. Mine makes a hissing type of sound when I let the clutch out at idle. No vibration, just a hissing sound. I goes away when the clutch is pressed in. 4. Rattle or noisy reverse, normal!
