i have been ooffered a number of altezza 3sge motors at a good price - problem is the motors are nearly long motors - some accessories, no flywheel or flex plate. i'm trying to find out if there is anything on the motor externally to identify which ones are auto or manual - as i'm only really interested in the manual version any ideas?? t |

all i can think of is checking the wiring loom section back to the gearbox - as the auto will have the shift position plug on it (if its not cut off) cant assume importer will be intelligent enought to do this for me though.... |

Yea im facing the same issue except there is none in NSW im willing to drive out to look at. You need to get the engine number and ask Toyota wether or not it is an auto or a manual. Thats the only way to check unfortunatly unless someone can confirm a cosmetic difference |
