OK, so what happend to the bad boy (and ugly) Trans warp speed starship in the Search for Spock where Scotty took parts out of it so they couldn't catch the Enterprise, did they drop that idea for the series?

C'mon, I gotta do something to kill time waiting for South Park.

Yup ... said it was "unworkable", although the Excelsior-class starships were redesigned for conventional warp engines.

Transwarp showed up again as a method of travel used by the Borg. In that case Transwarp was described as more of a conduit - a point-to-point wormhole effect.
