most people choose TII's cause there cheaper and more readily available.
FD trannys seem to hold down more power though, without breaking...

most peoples trans' break because they dont know how to shift.
as long as its a smooth shift power cant really blow a tranny unless maybe you can frag the input shaft.

Suburu's used to be quite fond of stripping teeth off the gears. I havent actually seen that sort of damage on a mazda transmission yet though.

Want an example? Use Aaron Cake's FC. N/A trans and driveline with a half bridge and HUGE turbo.
You ever met him? He also knows how to not break his gearbox too.

Most people who actually know what they are doing know how to not break a gearbox too. Lol.
I am going on 3 years with the TII engine, NA trans. I am not making 400hp, but according to the naysayers, it shouldn't be able to handle 'stock TII HP levels'.

And on the same note, I broke the **** out of a n/a trans with a streetported 6 port engine, by driving like an *******... I had plenty of spares though.
