Auto Trans Problem, Need Help Urgently!

[SiK_NiSmO]

hey everyone i am new to the forum, just thought id ask a quik question,

my r33 gts-4 automatic is having a major prob with gear selection,

il give the best description i can

park= normal operation but cant rev the car past 3000rpm as if it is stalling up in gear

reverse= acting as a neutral, doesnt move forward or back, and also wont rev past 3000 rpm

neutral= is selecting a forward gear

drive= operating as normal, shifting fine and revs out as it should in each gear

2nd= as normal

1st= as normal

basicly its a real headache as i cant reverse the car, just wondering wat yall think cauld be causing it, i have checked all the wiring and it all appears to be fine, has this been a problem with any other auto's? cheers Dan

all checked, i was told buy a trans joint here in cairns that the clutch packs r fused togetha, so i need a new trans urgently, anyone got one?

[turboedsloth]

there fused together? did they remove the sump on the transmission an look inside? did u cook it? wat were u doing at the time this started happening?

i bought the car with this problem, the guy said it happened from sitting, which i didnt think was right, so i took it to nq automatics up here and they told me it was caused from the clutches slipping, and had got that hot that they had melted together, i have located another trans in townsville for a reasonable price, so my worries r gone for now

[turboedsloth]

ah k i get ya now. he must have cained the shit out of it to get it that hot. MAKE SURE U FLUSH THE OIL COOLER LINES OUT WITH SOME SOLVENT, otherwise all the crap that has gone through the lines an blocked the cooler will melt your new box. also recomend putting an extra external oil cooler on it after the radiator
