Auto box questions

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Long story short, I have ruined my stock auto trans and spun through the clutch packs.

The car is a gte from standard and converted it to single running 500hp (proven).

 

My question is, as I cannot find a definately answer...is tge turbo supra gearbox the same as the na auto gearbox???

 

If not how do tge auto box numbers differ?

The turbo is a a340e and tiptronic is 30-40ls?

 

Thanks :)

Tom

No, its not the same as far as I am aware .

At the very least you need an A340 e (aka tt auto box) and I would get David P to do the line pressure upgrade mod. Add a couple of tranny coolers and you will be good to go at that hp.

How can you tell the difference by looking at them?

 

I have two 24 row coolers on there at the moment, however I am trying to figure out if i should...

 

-buy a second hand stock suprs trans,

-buy a th400 American trans and convert it for fairly cheap

-rebuild my gearbox and do whatever the line pressure nod is.

Or manual convert it with an e36 m3 box.

Yes, its a simple spot, the NA box has a cable for line pressure, the TT box is fully electronic and has no cable

 

Is this line tge one that has a holder/bracket holding it to the top of the bell housing? If so I think I know what you mean :) thanks.

 

Can anyone tell me what the 30-40le is from? Is it the same as the a340e?

 

Same with tge 30-40ls

 

Are they for vvti models?

 

Am proper confused haha

Cheap and TH400 conversion don't go together.

Not a simple swap and you'd want the overdrive version of the TH400 and supra conversion kit. I believe Sound Performance sell them but you would be talking north of £10k for this all told I reckon
