Ok, celicamad, u've convinced me.
Due to my budget i'll go with the 18r-ge.
I'm just a little worried because 140 hp at the flywheel isn't really that great a figure. I was hoping to be able to pull about 100kw atw or about 133hp atw. I guess with a good exhaust kit and with proper tuning this figure is acheivable, so yeah, i'll go with the 18r-ge.
I'm mainly concerned with this engine because it is quite old.
Thats my only gripe with it, everything else seems to be pretty good though
