I *BELIEVE* it said it had a sort of displacement on demand system that when the TC locked up, one of the cylinder banks shut down, just like when it shifts.

P.S. - It was here in these forums that someone told me that he US and JDM trannies were "completely different beasts"

My seat of the pants impression is that during shifts, the ecu does not shut down any cylinders or pull fuel from any cylinders. The car feels too smooth for that. I've read elsewhere that the ecu retards the timing by about 10 deg when the tranny shifts. That feels more like what's happening to me.
The trannys have different center diffs and a different final drive ratio. I would guess there are some other internal differences owing to the different center diff designs.
