Hey guys. I just picked up a LN106 Hilux double cab. It was an abandoned project and it has no engine or transmission but it used to have a 3L diesel. It still has the wiring harness for the 3L.

My LN106 Hilux runs a G52 transmission identical to many domestic yotas. Those familiar with G52 tranny I need your input.
