Where To Install A Transgo Valve Body Kit

[fcruz3r]

I want to upgrade the 5AT transmission on my 2004 V35 skyline with a transgo valve body kit. Not really keen on doing a DIY myself coz not too handy with a spanner.

Was wondering if anyone knows or has done a shift kit upgrade on their cars and can recommend me a reputable auto transmission service center to do the job.

thanks in advance.

Just installed my Transgo kit on my V (took the whole weekend due to some problems) and feels great so far.

Purchased my kit from CTPower Train in the US and I would recommend looking for a transmission shop who has worked on the RE5R05A transmissions before.

Labour should be around 200-300 not including fluid....5 Litres of Nissan Matic-J fluid is about $75ea (need 10L for flush).

Have you guys increased power or is it to increase shift time?

I'm not sure RVO's are as good as a Full stage 2 Transgo though Aaron, I think they only replace the springs with heavier units not replace the valves. That said, they are handling the power just fine. My re5 has had a full rebuild with power pack clutches and high stall, the car will hopefully crack 11's next pass at Calder so the boxes are quite strong with the slushiness removed.

Not sure about Perth but theres MV in Adelade and Kewish in Melbourne also.
