"... See, in the MA70's, the transmission controller is a separate unit. In the JZA70 and JZA80 they're built into the ECU, and you can't run them without the engine attached. So, the only option until now has been to purchase something like a PCS Transmission controller for about $750..."

In the MA70s car, does the transmission controller have one or two wire connected to the ECU? or a better question, can automatic transmission operate with just the transmission controller and no engine ECU connected to car? I am considering using a MA70s automatic transmission with its transmission controller in a non-supra vehicle. Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
