    If i'm lucky I might make it in time. I'm fitting the diff now.

        I flushed the trans with about 10 liters of type 4 and took it for a spin to test the mods. The shifts are firmer and shorter but not as firm or as short as I would like. It still farts on the changes, specially first to second. I think some more aggressive shimming is needed.

        On the bright side, I know how to do it now and I didn't fuck anything

          you know that the farting on the 1-2 shift is the computer reatarding the timing right
          This is a post i wrote by mistake, which is nice...

            Long shift = long farts.
            Short shift = short farts.
            Slam shift = no farts.

            This is what I have been hearing from people with shift kits. The ECU only retards during the shift, so the farting is a good way to judge the effectiveness of the shift kit. If it used to take 1.5 seconds change you get a 1.5 second fart. I you run rods in the accumulators it smashes into gear and the farting is pretty much eliminated.

              Rod me baby.

              I have rods in mine.

              It shifts instantly-but not a particularly smooth shift......(obviously)

              I've got the motor out at the moment for a bit of work, so I'm having the trans checked over too.

              It's condition should be a good indication of exactly how strong these boxes are.
              Adjustable cam gears for 1FZ-FE now ready for sale - 10 degrees advance/10 degrees retard. Suitable for all variants of 1FZ-FE.

              (adjustable scissor gear for changing separation angle between the intake and exhaust cams coming soon)

                Do you use the 5 solenoid box?

                  that would be an A350?

                    Na its the A340LE 2JZGTE box. Look at my pics.

                      I really want to know how to increase line pressure. I'm not sure that thingo I turned up did this. AFAICT one of the solenoids controls line pressure. If I know which one it is I could maybe figure out a way to magnify the line pressure. Also, line pressure increases will cause faster and former shifts won't it? I am thinking that my shimming might need an increase in line pressure to work more effectively.

                        Yes. I think from reading those other fora, the line pressure is either controlled by a cable, or electronically. So the cable might be just for kickdown which is pretty irrelevant for what you want.

                        Hmm, I might need to read more. Do you reckon the base pressure is no higher? Shifts are a bit faster but no harder?

                          The cable isn't for kickdown, they have a kick down switch. It is a mechanical line pressure controller afaik, much like the TH700 uses.
                          You have to ID the line pressure solenoid and alter the duty cycle on it.
                          Sounds like something you would be keen on Dennis.

                            That is the plan.


                            The shifts feel firmer. But is that because of the shimming or line pressure? And I think I can hear the fluid moving through the box. Which some people were saying is a side effect of increased line pressure. Maybe the thing I adjusted did increase base pressure and the solenoid gives any father increase in line pressure"? If I knew more about autos I might be able to figure out which solenoid it its and take a look at how it modifies line pressure.

                            Yeah the cable on the 1UZ and 1JZ trans controls line pressure.

                              The line pressure solenoid should be identified on the ecu pinout. You just need to know what the abbreviation for it is e.g. LP. Then alter the signal from there.
