stuck Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Forgive my ignorance chaps but is the shift on a P38 auto box 100% mechanical? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aniesigh Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Nope, electronically controlled via solenoids. The linkage from the shifter to the box is mechanical though (incase that's what you mean) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aniesigh Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 What for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuck Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 What for? I have a 2000 110 with a 'squirted 4.6 which I'm going to supercharge & want to convert to auto. Nige (HFH) did have a shift ECU for sale a while back but I think it sold, don't think he's offering it as a product so need to familiarise myself with what's available.

Boydie Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 You would be well advised to talk to David Ashcroft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elbekko Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 P/R/N/D is mechanical, 1/2/3/4 is electronic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aniesigh Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Look at compushift on ashcrofts website. Standalone controller for the p38/disco 2 box which allows full adjustability of the shift points and also adds tiptronic control. My kit turned up Monday You'll need to strip the gearbox and change the output shaft and tail housing for one from a discovery/rrc though as the p38 uses a different transfer box.

aniesigh Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Oh and make sure you get a box from a 4.6 as its a stronger box than the 4.0 /2.5's (4hp24e over 4hp22e) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
