I am planning to do my transmission service; I have couple of things to ask from you guys, please help. Thanks...

:3some:

1) What is the fluid capacity of skyline gtst r33 SII automatic transmission? (without torque converter)

2) Which oil is the best for r33? How much $?

3) Where can I get the service kit including the seal? How much $?

Thanks

Why do you say without torque converter? There is very little oil in the pan -less than 2L I would guess - I used 12L by undoing the hose to the trans cooler, running the engine to expel 2L, then add 2L thru filler and repaet until the oil runs clean. Filter kit was around $100 but it is metal - you can just take it out and clean it. Any ATF will be OK - synthetic is better.

i used castrol transmax Z, just undo the sump plug on the bottom of the transmission pan and let it drain.

i used about 4.3litres from memory, just make sure you check your levels because too much or too little will screw with things.

also give mike at MV autos in adelaide a call.

he does the shift kits and can also supply you with a new filter for $33 i think.

He's a helpful guy anyway and should be able to answer any general questions you have

ill be using the transmax z stuff also. just not sure how much the actual whole system holds??? jsut unbolting the oil sump bolt wont get rid of all old oil. there is still heaps in the converter and what not. i used up 12L in my aristo so i might just do the same with the liner.....

you wont get all the oil out of the convertor just by servicing it. if the oil is dirty flush the system by undoing the cooler line at the front of the car an do as kiwi mentioned, this is easiest if you dont know what your doing

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
