T50 to AZ6... a "new" option for gearbox issues

My K50 and 3au are mint

ae85 uses t50 too..
k50 is wireclutch

and just for the record, the trd gears for the t50 isn't dogshift or straight cut gears so it isn't a dogbox
as far as I know only quaife makes straight cut dogshift gears to the t50
and they are alot stronger than stock gears, not because of the straight cut part but because they are MUCH wider
straight cut gears are actually weaker than helical gears

but still I've managed to break a T50 quaife gearbox behind my 4A-GE engine..
but that was because the gear linkage did fail so I had the gearbox in 2 gears at the same time that did end up with locked up rear wheels..

but I can promise you one thing.. the t50 gearbox steals ALOT hp compared to the quaife gearbox
and the toyota/mazda 6gears box is the same?
it's known for stealing even more hp than t50 or w58
