that left the car off the road for a few months while i tried to find another box.

my supra - racestyle - 23-11-2019

finally found a box of the mkiv owners site

so with the new box i decided to do clutch and flywheel too so a call was made to competition clutch for a lightened fly and stage 4 clutch
