Feels good to be driving the whale again. I got the box in, fitted the mishimoto radiator and filled up the fluids, damn this coolant mod is great.
I took it for a short squirt around the block, the box felt nice and tight again, I still need to fit the new 30 row trans cooler before any track duty. Kewish want me to bypass the line pressure regulator for full line pressure then they say it should be fine at PI.
As we used a spare box for the rebuild and stole all the good parts out of my old one, I found out the hard way there are two different dipsticks for the RE5. I had to shorten it by around 30mm and turn up a plate to slide into the gearbox. There must be a slightly different housing for later M35's...
