hi all,

i posted this about 12 hours ago, but i got an error when i did so, any mod care to check that?

anyway here goes, my mate got a RB25DET powered R32 skyline, its an auto and he has a serious (or not very serious) problem with the gearbox.

see when the box selects second gear it has a habit of sticking in it . ie: it wont shift to first or third while the engine is runnig, have to turn the engine off, select first gear, then turn on again.

can anyone explain why is this happening, even though he changed the tranny oil filter and the oil too.

i searched for info on this topic but no gain.

thanks for your inputs :P

ps: i'll just copy this just in case the thread dosent go again, better to be safe than sorry.

i had the same problems before my tranny blew

the band is dying and cluttering up the valves with debris

the debris falls away when fluid stops flowing so when you restart all is ok

2 options

cange it to manual $3-5k

rebuild the auto $1.5-4k

either way mine lasted about 1 month before it gave up totaly

hope this isnt same fault i had mate

    • Yea my thought was tighter engine when hot is more load a poor ground connection can't take. On that note, I had time to check my driveshaft verical alignment tonight, it's +2 and -2 at either end, so thats perfect and how I had set it up last year. What would be the easiest way to check horizontal alignment between my diff and transmission? I can think of a few ways but they're all complicated and I feel like I'm overthinking it. I'm hoping it's that as I can't see any other reason why I have developed driveline vibration since I put the motor back in. 
    • Thank god. I thought I was the only one, nobody seems to mention this (cause nobody really goes this far in Sedan land). The car's track is 10mm wider at the rear, which explains why the rears sit a little further out for the same size wheels. There's not really many options in widebody land for sedans anyway - People will just use whatever came out of the box and then buy wheels/spacers to suit. To get it perfect you'll likely need custom wheels with custom offsets if you really want to get it perfect which is what I plan to do, but I also plan to utilize more of the inboard space for tyres at the rear... which is also something nobody ever seems to do.... OR my maths have failed me after 20,000 attempts and I'm about to make huge mistakes. 
    • What colour is that?  A mate of mine went red/black on his SLR5000 tribute recently also.  And yes, also glad to see this still progressing albeit slowly. 
    • found a company that makes a flat gauge face 3-d printed mounting base kit to eliminate the dished style gauges. if anyone else is looking to do the same https://www.dashfreaks.de/shop/flat-dials-holder-nissan-skyline-r34-gt-gtt/    
    • I installed my link ecu shortly after. But car ran fine with stock ecu and r35 coils, just had the traction control and slip lights on.
