There are oil coolers for manual transmissions like on the Porsche GT3. Obviously too much heat could be a problem. It would be nice to have data on transmission oil temps or from people disassembling their transmissions, but I haven’t seen too many. In the end, the damage seems inherent in the limitations of the components, so people just chalk it up to that. I’m definitely beyond the limits of the transmission, as stated by Aisin, so if mine broke I wouldn’t be surprised. If I opened mine open now then maybe I would find some deformation or stress points. Track conditions might just fatigue cycle the metal more often to get it to snap in a timeline that is much shorter than a street car. This is true of all components, is it not?
