hi Brett, that sucks big-time about the car Sad

maybe it's just the linkage for the shifter? or the wiring to the box has been broken ... cause if you gave the gearbox a good shove thru the tail-shaft then all the mounts/links on the diff are suspect - and that would probably render the car undrivable?

it could be that the computer's not correctly engaging the gears? the 1G box has electronics that: surround the selector housing (a position sensor? wiring for solenoids to control gears?), a speed sensor (to drive electronic dash?), wiring for a solenoid (o/drive lockup?) and something else at the back of the box (speed sensor used by ECU as it works without elec dash?). If you broke/buggered some of these you might get similar symptoms?

or, i have the motor/gearbox out of the yellow RA - would the auto fit the supra? for the rest of you wondering WTF am i'm talking about, the engine is a 1G-GTE with auto still attached. My research suggests that it's a A340e gearbox. Or will the unique-bell-housing-thing that makes it so hard to find a suitable manual gearbox (W58?) also stike here?

or, maybe an importer has suitable gearbox (i was emailing Rolin Imports <www.japparts.com.au>to try to buy a manual box for the 1G). At least they'll give you an idea about prices for short-warrantied gearboxes?

best-o-luck ;(
Charles.
