Default aristo vvti tranny ????

does anyone know or know of anybody that has done a aristo vvti swap into a gs400 and retained the eshift .. from what i am being told the aristo vvti motor's tranny is a eshift model as well and with our gs400 being wired up to the steering wheel with eshift it should plug up and work

to me that would be sweet , a aristo vvti motor , singled and having still eshift

i am thinking about this only if i cant sell my car for a fair priceto me

i have got an Aristo ( TRD Edition ) model 2000.. came with an Eshift.. also singled.. ! i agree with the guys.. it is possible to connect the Eshift to the 2jzgte vvti... but why would you want a vvti .. if u can get a normal 2jzgte non vvti... it would be much easeir to deal with.. and some parts are chaper as well... ! i am thinking of changing my vvti head to a normal non vvti one !

the headache i faced with the vvti is unbleivable !
