Gday guys,

I have a Mitsubishi Express and i have installed a 1JZ twin turbo motor in it. Mods i have done is Microtech LT-12s, surge tank, 984 pump, 450 x 300 core Hybrid intercooler, PWR radiator and twin dumps with a twin 2 x 2.5inch exhaust off the turbos. Future mods will be GT 35/40, 600cc injectors.The transmission is starting to make noises and i have been told to send it down MV Automatics for a rebuild. I have been told he is the best in the game but my only concern is if he rebuild the tranny and it starts to play up down the track i have to send it down to him to fix. Can i have your opinion on his transmissions on how they hold up and if you did have any issues with the transmission how is his support.

Thanks heaps

MV autos is awesome, they do top work. There is two guys I know of with big power using MV autos rebuilt a340, one running low 10's and the other is well nuts, 4.5L straight 6 with a whooper turbo.

i have had mikes transmission in for 4 years

10.17 et at 137 mph

i have been putting over 480 rwhp through it for 2 years, i have done over 180 passes at the track and about the same on the dyno, i have also done approx 30,000 street k's on it as well. never had a problem with the box, i have had a few convertor issues on the past but that has all been sorted now.

my advice is do it.

Is that the Crown with the Landcruiser engine? Came across that on Toymods. Finally lost second gear, and then a conrod, at around 530 rwkw. I guess that answers some questions about how much you can put through an A340.
Also had me thinking "Why would Toyota build a 4.5l straight six for a 4x4 which would take that sort of power before it let go?". I think there's a bug in the engine designers' computer programs :-)

That be it. He reckons 5x factory power output before it let go. Gotta love toyotas.
