hey 1.5jz how do you find your gearbox from mv??? im tossing up wheather to go the glide or just one of mv's boxes as i really want to be able to drive it alot and the 4speed will be better for that??? just dont want to spend the money on one then have to go for a glide anyway. also when you did your 11 was that with the 1jz or the 1.5j??? just making a 1jz and 2jz (quickest cressida list) on cressida forums. |
