Would anyone know if there would be any differences in the a340e transmission that someone who has been using it in a Supra MKIII with the 7MGTE (Turbo) engine. Did that transmission come as standard on the MKIII ?
I ask because someone has one for sale that has been upgraded, here is the description that he gives:
[quote]Tranny was rebuilt 600 miles ago. It received a full rebuild kit, not just a banner set. In addition, clutch count on the first brake was raised from 5 to 7, the second brake was raised from 5 to 7 & the O/D was raised from 5 to 6. Raybestos "blue plate" clutches & all new steel disk were used. The valve body received stiffer springs for tighter shifts. It has also received a new pump ($460) & a new downshift cable ($110).[/quote]
Would I be able to run this on my Soarer or are there significant differences between one a340e and the next. (JZA70 version and JZZ30)

Joe, try mkiiisupra.net . I seem to remember a post from Adi saying that the JZA70 box was different from (and stronger than) the box used with the 7M.
I also remember a seeing a note which (IIRC) said that it was possible to swap valve bodies on A340s in order to use the SupraStick (for 2-solenoid boxes) on a box with a 3-solenoid valve body, so maybe there's some interchangeability. Can't remember where though.
EDIT: Found it... http://www.supramania.com/forums/printthread.php?t=55&page=2&pp=10 Quote: Originally Posted by suprra_girl I've been visiting your website... is the V4 SupraStick actually available for the 2JZ-GTE transmission?

No, the Suprastick will not control the electronic line pressure. However, the older valve body should bolt into the newer tranny - if you are upgrading based on the speculation it will hold more power throw in a valve body from one of your older trannys you have sitting around. The SupraStick would be able to control that...
