How-To I.D. Supra "Family" Automatic Transmissions *****


Recommended Posts

:thumbs: The Definitive - Which Auto Box Is What :thumbs:

 

:think: Identifying Supra automatic transmissions .......... is not as simple as one(s) might think. :confused:

 

:smartass: Below are details of their external little differences. :slap:

 

 

Mr T. doesn't help by titling Supra N/A & T.T. Automatic Transmissions both; "A340E" :confused:

Aisin AW - alternative & multi-purposed plate-codes - add to the mystery :confused:

 

 

 

For I.D. Mr T originally used yet another set of code numbers on a "fade or fall-off" bar-code sticker & :zzz: omitted to mention the Aisin AW numbers in his Bible(s)? :confused:

 

Mr T now uses vehicle registration numbers and attachment.php?attachmentid=209825&d=1457191025 computer magic. attachment.php?attachmentid=209841&thumb=1&d=1457258044

 

 

Tip: Despite many matching numbers - you need to confirm it has matching flange & socket :slap:

Photographs of Transmissions

 

 

Top: Supra T.T. A340E-GTE 30-40LE - J3 bell-housing - 4-stud flange - 8-pin solenoid socket

 

Bottom: Supra N/A A340E-GE 30-40LE - J1 bell-housing - line-feed cable - sliding-yoke - 3-pin solenoid socket

Note different solenoid sockets :think: Also note Mr T's original fading and/or falling off Bar-Code stickers :confused:

 

 

 

30-40LE - J3 bell-housing - line-feed cable - 4-stud flange - 3-pin solenoid socket; is one of my Hybrids. :baby:

Aristo Auto A340E 30-40LE & Tiptronic A34#E 30-40LS boxes look same as Supra TT, except for Aristo having 3-hole size 'B' donut prop-flange & the Tipronic having a 12 pin solenoid socket.

With some having a :love: sexy dipstick handle.

 

attachment.php?attachmentid=218995&d=1495236653

 

Note: 8-pin solenoid socket indicates this 3-hole flange Aristo box is an automatic :think:

 

 

 

1UZ-FE VVT-i A650 has U1 bell-housing, breather pipe and size "B" 3-hole prop-flange

Cross-members

 

 

The 'boomerang' shaped one at the top part no. 57255-14231 and/or 57255-14231, allows for the additional 18mm length of J3 & U2 bell-housings.

 

The 'straight' one at bottom, part no. 57255-24060 and/or 57255-24061, pairs with J1 bell-housing on Supra GE & Soarer GTE.

After more than one complete sample sets of code numbers have been collated it will be possible to identify a transmission with them? :confused:

 

The secrets are hidden in this group of the code?

 

30-40LE 35000 1B240 95E R 00095

 

Until then, I have explained how to see them in the Real World, without the need for spectacles. :shrug:

 

 

Should I have made any error, or should you have a missing complete plate-code to donate, please contact me and I will edit.

 

Should you have further information to add, please feel free to do so. :)

 

:hi: Thank you

The Aisin AW plates are now decoded enough to identify Supra transmissions. :)

 

For the records, I'll continue to compile the remaining transmission pics & plate-codes, if you have access to either, please don't be shy.

 

:hi: Thank you.

Despite my considerable yet apparently totally and completely unappreciated efforts to help members ID these boxes, I constantly receive Prisoner Messages with further questions, because of the missing information that I still seek!

 

This information is in the possession of members who are too F lazy and/or too F ignorant to volunteer this for the benefit of other members.

 

Ironically, the person's who want-want WANT information, are mostly the same person's who won't-won't WON'T give information! :shrug:

 

I have been trying to fill in these final little gaps in the AisinAW code plates information for 3-years now. :looney:

 

If you can provide any of these final & definitive pieces of information, please do?

 

Thank you.
