318/8 Speed Swap

I would love to talk to you about the transmission controller. I am in the work to make my own and it is almost done. I will run without the converter and use the big B clutch as a release clutch. I got theoretical 50ms gearshifts, clutch to clutch. It will go in a drift car so no need for comfort :D

But I got some questions I would like to ask you:

1: Which voltage are you running at the solenoids? 5V or 12V? I thought they where 12V but just read in a forum that they are 5V. Made me thinking :rolleyes:

2: Have you connected any of the built in sensors? I got the thermistor to work, but struggle with both of the 2 wire hall sensors for input and output shaft speed and the park position sensor. Any details of how to wire them up to the Arduino?

Hi Steven, I am going to use the controller from Sound German Automotive. I've spoken with the owner, Russell, who also developed the controllers. His controller only needs a TPS, brake switch signal, RPM reference - tach signal. The controller otherwise plugs into the transmission, using the built in factory stuff. I am not that aware of the voltages and such, but I am sure Russell will answer your questions. Any questions I've had so far, he's answered them. Here is his website... Sound German Automotive
