lower gears??? dude you got it backwards... im not going to give up my top end for low end. doing sixty mph in high rpm because I put in lower gears isnt what im looking for.

anyone else?
How is that backwards? Why do you think people run 3.76 gears? 2800 is a high stall, and most people Don't run aftermarket trans cooler. I currently work for a Toyota dealership, worked at Lexus for a few years before, i have seen the bottom of more GS than you could imagine. I have seen 1 2G4 in the Minneapolis area come in with a TC and a cooler.., the reason why is because after doing a drain and fill, i was about a quart low, didn't understand why until i traced the lines and found the cooler. Sorry for trying to help you.
