a few questions concerning a 1g-gze into a gz10
the car is currently 1g-ge with and auto box (ECT)
1. does the auto box have its own ecu or use engine ecu?
2. does the auto box need inputs from the engine ecu to run?
3. will the auto box change gears if i run an aftermarket computer for the engine? or will it need sum inputs from the aftermarket ecu to change gears?
Cheers
Matty

Own

Possible, but only simple things if anything.
I remember reading a write up on the A43DE box (which I presume you have), and it said it takes in inputs from engine temp, revs, brakes, speed etc etc.
How true this was, I don't know.
Have a look under the dash, see if any wires go between the ecu.

Possibly some inputs, like the ones I mentioned above.
But I dont think the A43DE will go into limphome mode like the newer boxes do, it may just have interupt the shift points.
Try it, only one way to find out.

They are 2 separate ecu's located in the kick panel on passenger side.
the auto box does need the ecu to run and change i beleive. but they could be sourced from an aftermarket ecu as they are only simple things as stated.
you will be easily able to wire it up to work with new ecu id say.
good luck with conversion.. i love my z10 soarers(own 2 of them, one with 1jz and 1g geu, same as yours)
make sure u post pics and info when its done
