you can swap in a 1jz or 2jz and leave the trans in there. the trans choice will depend on your power goals as well as your driving style. if you know how to shift and dont riser "power shift" then you can get away with about 350ish on stock trans without issues.

if you plan to leave the 1jz mostly stock, other then maybe exhaust and such a w58 is fine.

roll around with the stock 2jz-ge/w58 for a bit. Build up a r154 if you are going to be looking for some decent to outrages hp #'s good luck.
