I've been searching for a Jatco RE5RO1A for ages, and have never been able to find one for sale.

Are they that rare?

There are plenty of the 4 speed RE4RO1A models around...

Currently, I have a Jatco 4N71B (VL 4 speed auto) matched to my RB25det, and I really want to upgrade to the 5 speed auto.

If anyone knows of a place I might be able to ask about getting one, could you please let me know. Thanks.

I think you'll find it's the same as V35, M35 Stagea, and late model Patrols. The latter two obviously have a transfer case.

Happy to be proven wrong, but I'm fairly sure that's it.

hi ive been told that the 5 speed auto came in the non turbo 32s and as the trans housingis the same size as the 4 speed the internals are smaller(read weaker) so that the whole lot would fit in

in theory, could I buy this, rebuild it with stronger parts, and fit it to my RB25det?

Aftermarket ECU to run it?

. so you you want to pull a recon trans apart so you can fit stronger parts?your keen with deep pockets that for sure, i know info is limited but you might want to investigate this 5 speed AT some more. . .you might find your car is pulling the same revs in 5th as it would with the 4 speed auto,aftermarket ecu to run it? MIGHT be something out there

Not so interested in the revs in the last gears. More interested in the extra pull from the early gears.

I found the gear ratios in comparison to the 4 speed, once, a while ago. Cant find them again. But it was something like this:

1 - 3.857 - 2.785

2 - 2.140 - 1.545

3 - 1.384 - 1.000

4 - 1.000 - 0.694

5 - 0.694

      GOT SUM's RB34

      By klutched · Posted

      Got some decent progress after work yesterday and also today. Got the ECU all wired and passenger side interior all back together. Kept the wiring up nice and high to avoid people standing on it. Got the surge tank relays rewired and tidied up the pump wiring and cut a hole to bring the cables through.  I found a spare USB cable I had lying around so I decided to cut it up and see if I could use it for my CAN 1 bus. Turned out one of the pins I needed was to the shield of the cable so i cut it up and desoldered it and resoldered to the correct pins.  Had the issue with the powersteering hose hitting the A/C compressor and fan shroud. I pulled the bracket off and modified it to remove the front mounting point which now clears it all. Will keep an eye on it to see if theres any signs of fouling once it's up and running.

      So today I went well outside my comfort zone (again) to replace my valve cover gasket.  I have had a big leak over the exhaust leading to a lot of smoke and smell every time I drove it. The leak was in the rear driver's corner.  The job wasn't hard as such, just a bit finicky and time consuming.  The old gasket was rock hard and broken right where the leak was.  The leaky corner had so much sitting oil in it.  The good news to my amateur eyes was no buildup or sludge under the cover. It all looked fairly nice in there.   I haven't started it yet. I ran out of light and body when putting the coils and injector loom back in. Probs only 30min left for the morning.  I was so nervous putting the cover back on, I must have lifted it 5 times to make sure the gasket was still seated properly. God it's going to be nice to be leak free and not make other traffic light queuers think my car is about to explode.

      Gave the Mazda it's first wash, it will need some clay, a light compound, and polish polish to remove a few swirl marks, but that will be a job for when I have a full day to get my DA polisher action on

      Just did this job on my 32 with the boost doc kit. was quite simple to fit, hardest part was getting the rubber bungs back on the firewall. does anyone know how the heater will work now without the flap in the bend? Will I just have a heater on 24/7 now?
