I need a TCU for a VTD SVX w/ a front diff speed sensor... Do any of you guys that did the conversion have your old one left over?

Don't have that one in Aust, it would have to come from a JDM front cut. There have been a few brought in.
NZ would be the best bet. Make sure that it matches the C solenoid that is in the rear end you are using.

It is the yellow wire normally closed sol... I was wondering if the AU model ever had the front sensor... thnx

Yellow is the N/O early model 92 to 94, so you should find that one easier. How big a hurry are you in?

Well, with any luck I will get the trans out this weekend and be able to drop it off this week at the rebuilder's...

Maybe a week or two later to get it back and reinstall it...

Not really a huge rush, I can convert the AWD later on, its not too bad to do. But if it is possible I would like to do it with the trans on a bench rather than in the car

I believe it's possible to install the JDM VTD software onto the USDM TCU hardware.

I've carefully compared the JDM and USDM circuit boards. The only hardware difference I can see is one extra small resistor on the USDM which I assume is to enable the atmospheric pressure signal - JDM doesn't need it but won't care if it has it. So I'm pretty sure the JDM software will run fine on it.

I'm building one for somebody at the moment

and I'd be happy to do one for you too if you can't find a JDM TCU.

Harvey said he might have a bead on one... If he has any trouble with it I would be glad to go that route

Ask Peter for what you require - he has 3 JDM models stipped down to bare shells.
