Managed to get hold of some A340E's that are working, but tired - this should give me some practical experiences with working with slushboxes...

In again.

The Lexus AFM is 25% larger than the stock AFM in the Supra. However the ECU only read it as the stock size - so if you increase the size of the AFM by 25%, you need to increase the size of the injectors 25% to match it. Otherwise, you'll run lean and turn your piston into a plasma cutter...

Hard to get hold of too - so scratch that! :)

Aaah, right, i think i know what you're getting at - sorry for asking so many questions, but trying to learn something here :D With the ratio's tabled above, would there be any benefit to an A350E over an A340?

Hmm...any way of replacing the spline on the torque converter, such as a hydraulic press? There was a swedish guy that did that with a triple plate clutch he bought - replaced the spline to work on the R154.

Theres a lot of slack in the cable - shouldn't it be at least taut, like the throttle cable?

Aaaah - okay, understood :)

Cable for kickdown only? Hmm...i have a few spare TB gaskets - might as well recalibrate it - cause the car had NO power before the HG blew. That, and valve clearances.

Type 4 - got it :) Any idea on the Q?

Oh, you rebuilding yours? Get someone to photograph it - this has gotta be goooood :D Related Q: Tranny seems to shift up 'late', ie, it holds in gear, unless you give it more throttle, and then you can back off - cable out of adjustment, or is it a case of 'srsly, change the fluid & filter...

LOL - PDF for the A340/350/650 etc :) I have the A340E section in the TSRM here, so i can use that as a base. Seriously starting to think this is an option for the old, tired 122k mile A340E thats in there. I was just going to get a filter and new fluid in there, but i'd want to replace the...

Speedo drive doesn't worry me, if theres a digital output, i can always knock up an electromechanical converter. I've got all the electronics tools/skills needed for such a task...but i've just not done it before - one of those things that i'm concerned that a fuckup would toast something in...

Oh - sweet :) This is looking interesting - cause i can pick up a 5-speed A350/650E for £150. The transmission controller looks to be affordable enough - although the wiring could be a little nightmarish, unless theres a TSRM for the A-series (i know you have a printed 340E one). However, it...

Those the ratio's for the A340 or the 350? Mk4 diff then? Or swap out a diff from whatever it was mated to (soarer/aristo/gs300 etc)? When you say no need for a shift kit - i assume you mean theres no need to have anything other than the stock shift "PRND2L" pattern, right? Just trying to...

Hmm... See, i can't find a table of what the gear ratio's would be, and a 5-speed would be very nice in the blue one. Would there be no way of mating one of these boxes with the trans ECU we already have, or would that be no use at all? A transmission controller wouldn't worry me at all - as...

Christmas Dinner for one; Roast Chicken, Homemade Pork, Sage & Onion Stuffing, Yorkshire Puddings, steamed carrots & buttered cabbage, Roast Potatoes in homemade garlic & rosemary olive oil, and lashings of gravy:

2.0 VW Engine? Want an ABF? ;)

Simply, has anyone looked into doing a swap for an A350E / A650E as used in the GS300's? Would they be likely to be compatible with a 7M bellhousing?
