Guest sco350 Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 has anyone fitted a 5 or 6 speed lexus auto box to a TT. there are after market controllers available but will the lexus box fit the transmission tunnel. also to remove the standard 4 speed does the engine need to come out or moved to clear the bell housing etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Why would you want so many gears in an auto? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted July 8, 2010 Share Posted July 8, 2010 Why would you want so many gears in an auto? Much better rev ranges which is why OEM's have started doing them chap. I believe they might even be up to 7 speed boxes now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, IS-F has 7 speed auto. Beautiful and smooth it is, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest sco350 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 OK so the box will come out and with paddle change should be pretty cool. but what about the 6 speed A760E gearbox ,anyone any idea what size it is. as mentioned before, why so many gears on an auto ? cause first is to high for a quick get a way and to low to use on the open road. anyway the new kaaz diff is awesome if a bit juddery at low speed tight corners.
