I have put new fluid in my auto box and can report sharper shifting although it could be better. I don't think I got all the fluid out of the torque converter so I have ended up with a mix of old and new fluid.

There is a machine that flushes the old out and the new in.

I'm sure some other workshops have the machine, I know Midas do.

aslong as the gearbox is in neatral and not revved it should be fine just to pump the oil out as its under no load.

But yeh, ill be getting it done properly soon, along with some other mods if they can do it for the right price

im yet to find a automatic transmission workshop that has done alot of work on skylines etc

skyline gearboxes aren't that dissimilar from the VL so any workshop should have a fair idea of what they're doing...

my mechanic changed my auto gearbox oil / filter / gasket with no hassles...

Bastard!!!

Thats exacly what i want too!

I knew Mv Auto are good, heard about them before. I just need a place up here that can do it (Qld) Do me a favour and next time you talk to Mv auto ask them if they know any places in Qld for skyline automatics. Cheers

Yeah will probably have to look at beefing mine up after the FMIC is done ..... dont really know anyone in perth that does autos tho :cheers: :confused: Trannie cooler will be first thing

I have had my auto done by MV automatics, it chirps nicely between gear changes when you add a bit of power.

I would recommend them.

I've got a mate who got a shift kit for a V8 Soarer from MV... Nothing but positive comments from me...

Did you just do the shift kit Sleeper? Or a complete rebuild? Costs if I can ask??

The mate with the Soarer got his shift kit exchange...

IE... He paid the money, they sent the new valve body up here in a box, we fitted the new valve body on a hoist, he sent the old valve body back...

I'll probably do the same thing when the time comes...

Cost was around $450 IIRC... Plus tranny oil...

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
