Default Transmission

Any place where I can get my transmission built ? Now that I'm boosted I want to beef up my trans. Any place local?

Superior Transmission below does excellent work. I know 6 people who had work done their in the past 15 years that were happy. They are not that pricey and use OEM parts as well.

SP does pretty good. With those Toyota transmissions you need to watch out. I have a Supra TT build transmission that I will be selling.

The transmission should be in good condition. I only had it for a year before I decided to switch to 6 speed. It's been sitting for past year and a half in storage. I'm not sure how much I want for it. The LSD is long gone. Sorry.

Sound Performance does excellent work and re-built my buddies Supra tranny, I forgot all about that place. They are really good with the 2JZGE or 2JZGTE.
