Hi Guys !

ok i've got a GT-four st 205, in stock condition, great car >smile.gif>

now does anyone know if it's possible to get an auto transmission in to this car ?
the stick shift is great, and i've always driven with one, but now i'm just looking to make the car a bit more user friendly !

i've heard that the six speed sports box can be installed, but will it take the 4 wheel drive ???

any idea's would be greatly recived >smile.gif>
only draw back i have at the moment is living in Moscow, Russia, i have to order everything from Japan, but that's just time !

well i never heard of anyone making an 5speed into an automatic.... but its can be done but i think you would have to get the automatice off the AWD Cadline (SP) ... and you will also have to get the ecu.. and manule ecu will not handle the automatic functions... ..

WOW...that so wouldnt be worth the money and hassle. I would skip that swap i think

yeah i just had feed back from local site about Caldina GT-T, and $3000 fitted, that's not bad price....

i know it seems crazy, just sitting in traffic in town is doing my left leg in....

'2 Bufferdan' once you've had a GT-four, nothing esle come close, what do i swap to ????

Even if you can put in the Caldina Auto tranny... there will be a significant amount of wiring needed to get the Caldina ECU to work... and you'll need to run wires for several sensors on the tranny... not worth it IMO. If you don't like to keep your left foot down... shift into neutral and let if off... ;]

I was told yesterday the celica gauges for a manual are different from auto and can't be interchanged...

thanks for the info guy's ....

looks like i'll be keeping her stock then, it was just an idea for sitting in traffic, three hour jam every night wares on the ol' left leg a bit, but hey... what ever..
