Default Help Crisis!!!!!

Okay I have a SC with a W58 and I think I need a new transmission for my car. The problem started about a week ago and the thing is sometimes when I put the car into 1st gear it pops out hard like something broke almost like the car stalled out or something. So I'm thinking about putting a JDM R154 and I know I need a 1jz housing and a slave cylnder for a MKIII for it to work. Will I need a drive shaft also or do the SC drive shaft bolt up?.

Are you still running a 2JZ-GE? If so, it'd kinda be a waste of money to drop the R154 in, unless you're planning on going turbo in the future...

do an r154. it will definitely hold the power you make with the 1jz.

you can also give me that w58 for parts. i have one but spare parts are always good
