hey everyone i am new to the forum, just thought id ask a quik question,

my r33 gts-4 automatic is having a major prob with gear selection,

il give the best description i can

park= normal operation but cant rev the car past 3000rpm as if it is stalling up in gear

reverse= acting as a neutral, doesnt move forward or back, and also wont rev past 3000 rpm

neutral= is selecting a forward gear

drive= operating as normal, shifting fine and revs out as it should in each gear

2nd= as normal

1st= as normal

basicly its a real headache as i cant reverse the car, just wondering wat yall think cauld be causing it, i have checked all the wiring and it all appears to be fine, has this been a problem with any other auto's? cheers Dan

i bought the car with this problem, the guy said it happened from sitting, which i didnt think was right, so i took it to nq automatics up here and they told me it was caused from the clutches slipping, and had got that hot that they had melted together, i have located another trans in townsville for a reasonable price, so my worries r gone for now

ah k i get ya now. he must have cained the shit out of it to get it that hot. MAKE SURE U FLUSH THE OIL COOLER LINES OUT WITH SOME SOLVENT, otherwise all the crap that has gone through the lines an blocked the cooler will melt your new box. also recomend putting an extra external oil cooler on it after the radiator

    • I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.
    • Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.
    • Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them? 
    • I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.
    • Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
