As far as I'm aware no trans cooler for manuals.
Autos you can pretty easily hook up a cooler to and it will help longevity.

So it does cost something?

I've punished my car from new, currently at 25k km without a issue.

Tuned NA, lots of LC and FFS.

Now 8 psi FI, lots of LC and FFS, still on stock clutch.

I would not worry about it until you need to.

Disclaimer: if your running sticky slicks all bets are off.

Hey, in the 4th grade, English was the last period of the day and being a farm boy, I had to leave school early to help work on the farm –

Transmission issues will come more from shifting technique than anything.

Yep, flat foot a shift from first to second and find out, like one of our esteemed members did -

I don't know if it was the FFS, the clutch dump, or trying to do it all before the wheels quit spinning.

From what I've heard some high-horsepower 86 builders would shift 3rd-5th since 5th is a more robust gear than 4th.

Or, maybe with all that power, they just don't need all those gears -

Or maybe with all that power they no longer have all those gears.

Or maybe with all that power comes great responsibility.
