Sounds like speed sensor from gearbox. You need to confirm the error code off the ECU - look around for information on your engine code (2JZ-GE) and the correct procedure for using a jumper on the diagnostic port under the bonnet. It flashes a sequence that you can decode.
There are two speed sensors on the 2jz-ge, one for the transmission, one for the cluster.
Sounds like this fault code 42 from the link [url="http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/archive/index.php/t-35920.html"]link to FAQ on error codes[/url]
Speed sensor probs are not expensive, and just probably bad connection or bust sensor.
