and by myself with a late JDM-spec box controlled by an early JDM TCU in our US-spec '92 Peacock Blue SVX.”

Are you advising on the basis of experience with your own car? Particularly interesting is the fitting of a JDM transmission in a US spec. SVX. Details would be appreciated, including specific before and after results, and how, when and where there was binding.

At this point you must appreciate that the only proof is, that you corrected a problem by changing the TCU. In point of fact the early TCU could have been faulty.

Hi Trevor,

Please note, I have only posted three times in this thread.

The one and only purpose of my first post was in response to your one post, to offer substantial and unrefuted proof that late VTD boxes were IN FACT fitted with a N/C transfer solenoid. This statement was based on US/JDM/UK Subaru part numbers at hand. Again, based on information from Subaru dealers around the world, not based on my experience, not based on the experience of others, the part was changed, for reasons unknown to date.

No, I am not advising, or giving any advice, on the basis of experience with this particular car. This is not the venue. As this thread is highly significant and important, Phil's Gearshift Map thread, I'll step out now, and let the discussion and debate resume with that theme.

Thanks :-)
