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

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
