Hi all, I manage to replace the faulty temperature sensor with a '5k ohms variable resister' going into the TCU (which i can confirm it is located inside the driver side kick panel). I then turn the resister to about 2.5kOhms, and the transmisison 'thinks' the temperate is constansat at around 80c, and it shifts perfectly. this is an hack job if you don't want to replace the temp sensor, but you will be risking the fact that the car doens't know what the real temperature of the transmission is. The transmission for the r33 GTST s2 automatic is "re4r01a", you can search and download this manual for the purpose of this hack. thanks.

Hi all, can anyone please confirm the location of the ATM? Is it the driver side kick panel? I think i have a problem with my auto transmission fluid temperature sensor. I think it is sending an incorrect reading to my ATM (Automatic Transmission Module, Transmission Control Module, TCM etc). The transmission will not go into 4th gear (overdrive) between 10mins to 30mins of continuous driving. I am planing to override the temp sensor signal going to the ATM and see if this will work. If it does, i can either overide this permanetly, or get a new temp sensor. Thanks.
