I was hoping that someone can help me.

I want to get some info on the re4ro3a auto (came standard in 300zx z32 & Nissan patrols)

The r33 rb25det auto is a re4ro1a. The 2 autos are the some ,but in the re4ro3a everything is bigger (so I've been told). The skyline bellhousing will bolt up & so on.

The person I spoke to about this auto said that, he can modify the valve body to 4gaers on the shifter, manual shift, & also a trans brake if I wanted

How many other mods is there for this auto ,is there any big pans for it

Has anyone pushed this auto to its limits, at what hp

Anything that anyone knows or heard about this auto, would be very helpful

Thank you for looking.

I've been looking on the Internet all morning, and I found a website that said ,

Re4ro1a was used for medium duty vehicles (r33 skyline, steaga)

Re4ro3a was used for heavy duty vehicles (300zx twin turbo, Nissan patrol gq-gu)

I also found the gear ratios for both (same ratios) ,& the 300zx had 3.692 diff gears ,which suits me

I would not be surprised if there are few to no physical differences between those two transmissions. There might be slight differences in the width or material spec of friction materials, or there might be line pressure differences designed to make it better able to haul around a heavier car.

Remember that in terms of manual transmissions, the big VG30 manuals are essentially the same gearbox as the big RB manuals. They're all about the same strength. It's trivial things that change, like overall gearing, the bellhousing, shifter location.

If you phone MV automatics in Adelaide they will help out.

Have you got a phone number / website

I also found out that they hold about 4litres, the guts of the auto is a bit wider & longer. The pump is also bigger

Folly built they can hold about 1000hp (so I've been told)

try 14 litres and your closer mate.

Let us know how you go with the auto

What you doing about the converter (standard , hi stall)

Will be around a 3500 stall. Mz will re work the std converter to what will suit your purpose included in that price

Auto was sent off today it will be back in 3 weeks to be installed and then some fun. Full manual valve body etc push button overdrive and push button lockup clutch for highway driv

So theres no automation on the lockup clutch at all? If you stop the car you stall?

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
