Not exactly. It also has full lock up for a solid connection in 2-7 gear, which means significantly better power transfer. That's why the two trans put down about the same numbers on the dyno.

Traditonal slush boxes are just that -- they only allow fluid coupling (or only have lock up in the tallest gear).

Moroever, if memory serves, Nissan tuned it to accomplish gear changes in < .5 sec under load.
