Upgrading gearbox from AR25 to AR35
« on: 16 February 2009, 15:11:15 »
As when the new engine goes in, new gearbox will to...

Will I need the ECU for the box too?  Or can I run it on the current 2.5 AR25 ECU??

As far as I know, the GS820 ecu was never fitted to 2.5/3.0.

I think there is a bit more CAN chat going on on later ones....
