Point taken with the low torque using a 1UZ.. Many manafacturers have had a go at this (manual-auto stuff) over the years, BMW, Ferrari, Renault. And as it's NOT everywhere in the market place,-I can only assume, they all FAILED.. To have an Auto+Manual gearbox, I see two choices; 1/...

I understand what your saying, Nick M. Poorly posed question. Not that you would wish to do these things, I was trying to illustrate my question; With control of the 'valves' can you lock (have direct connection) from the input shaft to the output shaft, with this type of gearbox (A340E)...

With 'Over-run', I mean, lack of 'engine braking'. I'm trying to get the auto to behave like a manual. Is this possible?? Is there a Tech.sheet, on the A340E about, I have searched the site, but what was there- the links are broken.. Anyone have a electronic copy of the manual?? Thanks Sideshow...

If we had the cash, I'd be on the list for the new V8 M3 I see my solution, as something affordable..

Thanks drifty325i, the 'Crown" half cut then..? I may need to use a BMW forum for this-Chassic? if I'm probably going to be changing brakes and diff, does it matter if I use the 4cyl or the 6cyl chassic? Engine bay and trans tunnel differences?? Have seen some pics and threads of yours, was...

Hi to all, This is a Top!! site.. Currently developing a new project. Plan to use the E30 BMW chassis and a 1UZFE with the auto. I am at the stage where I need to know my (the) limitations of the project, what am I allowed to do and what is required to be legal? I'm from Melbourne Australia...
