Hiya all,
Through work, I can get hold of the new 6 speed gearbox from Aisin , and whilst it is not the same as the Toyota one used behined the JZA80 Supra's, I'm hoping that it is similar enough that it is an alternative .
Can somebody tell me if the bellhousing is removable (a la W5* boxes) ?
If the bellhousing is seprable, are they available to suit a 7M engine or is it a custom jobbie ? Or can a 2JZ one be butchered to fit ?
Anyone got sone more detailed pics of the bellhousing to gearbox bolt pattern ?
I have got the ratios from Norbs, but need some othetr general info, and anything will help.
I'm off to get some drawings and ratios from our server to see what I can find
Cheers
Michael B

From Aisin?? It's not the 6speed for the IS200 is it??
The Supra 6speed is a Getrag.

No. The bellhousing is part of the casing.

Can be butchered to fit. But it's easier to put a 2JZ in.

It's part of the casing as stated.

Oh bugger. Cheers for that info Wastegate, I have to do some more searching.
The gearbox that I am after details on is the Aisin, but not the IS200 one, it is a GM usage product, and is also known as D173 for the local, or D171 for the US market.
I'm trying to have a perve at one here to get some more info on it.
Cheers

PS As for putting in a 2JZ rather than butcher the gearbox, I'll stick with the gearbox, as I don't hav ethe time, patience or money for that matter to do both

The box I'm looking at (still trying to get a dwg) has the following ratio's ;
GM D173......................Toyota V160
1st......4.475 : 1................3.827 : 1
2nd......2.577 : 1................2.360 : 1
3rd......1.633 : 1................1.685 : 1
4th......1.193 : 1................1.312 : 1
5th..........1 : 1................1.000 : 1
6th......0.752 : 1................0.793 : 1
Rev......3.954 : 1................3.280 : 1
It takes a 10" clutch plate, and typically would have a diff ratio of 2.87 : 1. The engine is a NA V6
If I find more, I'll let you know
Cheers

With a first gear ratio like that sounds like it's a 4WD box.

a 4wd with a 2.87:1 diff ratio doesn't sound right to me?

Definitely not a 4WD, but a 2WD 4 door sedan. V6 N/A too. Was also surprised when I looked up the option string to see the ratio as well.
The tyres are 235/45x17's as well.
I'm still digging

From memory the V160 was available in 1995+ Mitsubishi 3000GT VR4 models.

The 3000GT runs an east to west style 4WD box.

My bad Assumed engine config was similar to the 300ZX. They do use a Getrag, but the WM6G1 model.
