Default transmission problem... 3050 doesnt fit?

hey all,

my transmission took a crapper on me.... so i bought a used transmission on ebay and had it sent to me... i have a 93 gs.... i bought a transmission for a 2jz non vvti engine... which by my knowledge should fit.... well the shop called me and said it wont work....

the one currently on the car is a 3040 or 304 transmission and the one i recieved is a 3050 or 305 transmission....

does anyone know if this will work with modification or why it isnt fitting? are JDM transmissions different than USDM>???

any help would be GREAT....

BTW here is the transmission i bought

You bought the rare 96+ GS trans which is a 5 speed.

hmm so your saying that there is no way to modify this tranny to work on the engine? even the 96+ gs engine is still the same right? non vvti

Non vvti but still 5 speed, very rare. Only a couple thousand made. Your ECU is programmed with a shift schedule for a 4 speed. "maybe" if you got a 5 speed ECU it could "possibly" work but do you really want to pioneer that and risk throwing more money on top of the pyre? Sell the 5 speed and find another 4.
