{USERNAME} wrote: Well, i went to my transmission tech today, he discovered that i could have retained my original auto and just swapped over the internal loom and solenoids Tell me more please, I was just about to swap out the valve body and try again, AFAIK the solenoids are the same type i.e normally open, but are powered differently as below. is the guy talking from experience?E series have common ground on all solenoids except S5. B series have common 12V on all except S7 - (Lock up TC) This is taken care of by different drives from the ECU. I rewired mine internally to be the same as E series but the BA box starts in second and then selects first at around 30KPH so I had assumed that the valve body is different. The BA manual suggests S4 is to blame. Is there a difference in the solenoids?

Maybe, if one came along cheap enough and if the funds permitted, i'd seriously consider it. {USERNAME} wrote: f**k me, thats alot of power just by fitting a stock BA motor, well done !!....... has it had a custom tune, or just stock tune to make it run in your car? Thanks matey! I'm pretty stoked with the outcome. I was originally hoping for and would have been happy with 180-190rwhp. The only chip tickle it has had was just to get it running, as the car wasn't drivable at the time it was in at BPT they weren't able to do a custom tune. So with just a single muffler 2.5' exhaust system, a "custom high flow" cat |
