As far as I know, you cannot retain the stock automatic transmissions. You'd have to switch to the r150 5 speed. Part of the good thing about the TDI is the miles per gallon, and automatic transmissions tend to make MPG worse. TDI s are pretty rough on trannies too, and the automatic tranny of those years aren't known for handling power.
Thanks man. Almost to this point in my build.
I would like to do this swap on my 96 4Runner would it be hard to keep the stock automatic tranny?

Would this coolant system be similar to the Aaz 1.9 td?
