Hurst or B & M shifters

[Hennie Marais]

Has anyone fitted one of the abovementioned on a A341E box. If not, will it work on it. I'm struggling to find a toyota shifter here so I'm exploring other options. I've got a nice controller for the gearbox that has 3 modes, fully auto, auto tiptronic and full manual tiptronic. It even controls the lockup and works from the TPS sensor. Now all I need is a shifter.

Hi Hennie, I would be interested in how you controlled the gearbox in the 3 modes? Pm me or email = [email protected]

Hi, the controller I got is actually a better one than I originally wanted. It's got 3 auto modes for economy, normal and towing amd 2 tiptronic modes for a autotiptronic where the box still upshifts or downshift if you overrev the engine and a normal tiptronic where it only shifts when you want it to shift, no override. The box is programable so you can decide in what mode it must start up and when your in auto you use the upshift and downshift buttons to select tiptronic or go back to auto. Even the max rpm is programable when the box must shift. It works of the TPS and rpm signal so no need for downshift cables etc. the Tps reading can also be configured on the controller with compensation factors. I'll scan the manual and post it for you guys.

tiptronic controller

What a cool setup, what's it worth and where do you get it? Ed

It's well worth it. The guys build it locally here, and it's small about 80X60x20mm.

I'm using a B&M Pro Ratchet shifter in conjuction with a controller supplied by MV Automatics, South Australia.
This setup is a full manual operation, works great.

Reviving an old thread... The controller is made locally in SA.
