Just an update and conclusion. Went to Racepace for it at last. Took about 1 week including to wait for parts etc. This is a list of cost break down: 1. Dodson sensors x 3 and kit (although only 1 failed I decided to change all 3 just incase the other 2 fail) $1200 2. Labour $1500 3. Gear box oil refill (depending what oil u use) So all up about a mid 3 grand to high 3 grand fix.

Thanks, would keep that in mind!

Thanks for the input. Which error code did you get? As far as i know there are a few different error codes that results in limp mode and some even have limited top speed. Just trying to see if we are the same situation. $3000, yea take it as GTR tax. Just hope that it doesnt get larger than that... Thanks again!

Need help in this guys. Was driving normally a few days ago and suddenly the light comes on in dashboard. Gears limited to 1 3 5 but not top speed limit. Talked to a few people and was told that Dodson and Willall both supply the sensors to fix the issue. Problem is, I am from Melbourne. So it comes down to only two choices: 1. Tow the car to either Willall in Adelaide or Just Jap Auto (Dodson dealer) in NSW. This way is safe but I have never towed a car to other states. Obviously cost factor is going to be higher and its also troublesome somehow (I am really busy). 2. Purchase the sensor part from either Willall or Dodson and find a skilled local workshop. But I have no idea who has experience (thats why i am asking...) or should be skilled enough to have their first go. I favor this more as it would make my life so much easier. So, I am hoping if anyone here could give me some advices... Pretty sure I am not the first person who encountered this problem in Victoria and hopefully someone could share their experience with me. It seems to be not the end of the world job and just need a skilled workshop to change the plug and play sensor (if I am not wrong from my research). Got two questions here: 1. Does anyone know how the job is done? Drop the whole gearbox or just part of it? Gear box oil to be flushed as well? Any others? 2. Is there anyone who has done the fix in Melbourne? Was it successful? Where was it done? Cost factors? 3. Is there anyone who has towed their car to Willall from Melbourne? Around how much was the damage in dollars including the labour, parts and towing fee? 4. If by any chance I am going to try to do it in a work shop in Melbourne? Any recommendations? MPC? Techsport? Would appreciate any type of input. As any of you could imagine I am quite panic on this matter. It sounded like doom day at the start as I heard the whole gearbox needs to be replaced (dealership way of handling). But good news was its just the sensors, however where to fit the sensors also sounded like a pain.... Thanks a lot in advance!!

Up for swap an USED Sunline Racing GTR Titanium catback exhaust 2 tips super light weight and sounds really good. Came along with the purchase of the car as a package deal. However I prefer a 4 tips look. Costs about 268,000 yen before shipping, tax, and broker fees. I am only looking at trading with titanium cat backs. Good exhaust if you are after maximal performance. Cash adjustment either way. Located in Melbourne south east suburbs. Please send me a message if interested.

Well I have done a bit of read up and most people seem to be happy with the WR oil apart from the warranty issue. I am still leaning towards using Willall oil after hearing what my friend has told me. However since I am new to the GTR world so thats why I am asking it here...
-
yea would love to have any opinions. Thanks in advance

I am recently thinking to use Willall oil for my major service. However my friend is talking me into not using it because he knows people who have a sensor fail in the gearbox after using Willall oil. He also said that Willall oil causes the rear LSD to have excessive noice. Has anyone experienced these? Or fine in a long run after using Willall oils? Please advise whether it is good to go ahead or not. Thanks
