Taken from L67torque.com from member VRTIDY


This is wired the same as the Transmission Manualiza plug that RVO and DTM transmissions are supplying for large amounts of money.

This transmission manualizing plug disables the Automatic gear change and allows the 4L60 transmission to be manually gear changed under full trans line pressure.
It will give a smooth manual gear change at low Revs/Power, and Hard as manual gear changes at High Revs/High Power.

1 x 4L60E transmission plug from a VR - VY Commodore loom. cut it off with between 100mm - 200mm of wire on it. $5.00
1 x IN5408 4 amp silicone rectifier diode. $1.00
4 X Stubbies of Harn light

Solder the yellow and light green wire on to the anode side of the diode and insulate.
Solder the yellow/black and Brown/yellow to the Cathode side of the Diode ( Side with the silver band).
supply 12volts from the ignition (reds) to the pink/blue wire to power the transmission.
Cut off remaining unused wires.

can u give more info on this as to wat it funy does in detail thanks

[delcowizzid]

triggers the shift solinoids manually when you select gears instead of the ecu controlling it.it uses the gear position switch in the trans to directly activate the solinoid required for the gear you want

[Red Ranger]

delco is this legit? Guessing if it is it would only work from vp onwards

[sp001in]

also how do you select 4th gear? Is D still full auto?

If I put it in D, is it going to be in 4th and have no take off power?

[Red Ranger]

if this is legit it is very cool, but the only car i would be game doing it to is the vn hahaha but that aint gunna happen

[thesakeofit]

yer thats what i was thinkin as im getin a vn calais auto soon and ive got a engine and 5speed conversion already sitin in the shed so was thinkin of doin this for abit of fun thats why id lik some more details

Hasn't it already been mentioned that manualy shifting an Auto kills the box.

[wraith]

obviously this looses torque convertor lockup and trans temperature 4th gear lockout good for doing an engine swap into an old vehicle with no ecu and a non-lockup convertor not so good on a commodore with standard convertor will cook the box if its driven at highway speeds without a non-lockup convertor and accompanying fluid mods inside the box for the TC

If youve tried to dyno a L67 $speed then you will understand.It has very hard to get a good plot from 80kmhr in 3rd with 3/4 throttle at least because it will kickback to second.This mods fixes that issue.One should only be carrying out this mod to for the dyno reason and nothing else.

ah i see now

i just remeberd that i used to hold the gears in my vp some plz slap me across the face

normally just command it too stay in 3rd with the laptop for dyno runs then it wont shift also lock the TCC watch the HP rise

[Mysterious-VE]

thats the one thing i quiete enjoy about the auto in a VE
it wants to stay in the gear you like without automatically shifting,
probably the only thing decent about it really
