Vs vr auto trans trick

[hq-racing]

hey, i know its probly internal but does ne1 knw a trick to stop the auto change from 1st to 2nd, even though your in 1st..
drives me nuts>>
has ne1 got it done and where did the go or if you can even do it without getting a full manual auto set up in da trans..
thanks...

it's a safety feature in the tune and i think the only way to get around it is a fully manualised valve body

How involved do you want to get?

Just last night I was reading about changing the valve body to fully manualize the 4L60E, that may be your only option. I don't think you can tune it out.

Mine's always stayed in 1st unless I change it into 2nd.

How many revs do you need, I often set them up to shift at 6000

Mine also doesn't have a rev-limiter if that's something to do with it not shifting either

fair enough, that a costly thing to do?

yea right, thats different, maybe coz urs is a vr, maybe the vs are different..
thought they were the same though..

[kidmavric]

what does a full manual valve body cost roughly??

[DannyboyDS]

you can pick a kit up for around $300+ expect the + it can get a bit technical though and I dont think it is as simple as slotting in a valvebody someone else has allready done I think some external components are required, which will require a hole in the side of the trans.

I could be wrong though, google and Ebay might end up your best friends.

I was reading an article in a mag....Perth Street Cars I think it was, there is a place that does manual valve bodies. Physically looking at the pictures, the electric connection between where the shift solenoids are is replaced with a copper pipe. I think thats how it is done.

Perhaps read the link I provided too. While it's not a simple mod, that's virtually a how to on it. Many would have home workshop gear sufficient to tackle it. Any fitter would also have access to the tools required on a 'foreign order' basis.
