Unfortunately automatic transmissions are a bit more complicated to do. To drain all the fluid out you'll need a machine to pump it out, if you do it yourself you'll never 100% drain it properly.

I've tried it before on my FTO and by using a few different methods the maximum I could get was 4.5L / 7.5L, it's a piece of mind knowing that you can get it 100% changed over.

DTM autos in geelong know how to do this (from experience)

Long way, but hey I lived in Hawthorn and went there..

I don't think there's a way to do it 'easily' though, it essentially needs to be running to flush the fluid out, and continually have new fluid put into it until everything inside it is new fluid. So if it holds 7.5L of fluid, you'll be using 10+ for a full flush as you can obviously never run the auto with zero fluid in it ;)

Thanks for that. Geelong is a bit too far for a simple automatic transmission flush haha. Yeah I figured I'd need 3 bottles (12L) for the full flush, will have to see what else is local :)

greg always does things the hard way.

the jatco auto box is actually in patrols and shit as well, any auto shop should be able to service it, its nothing special.

Lol when you get them you'll think they look really weak. Then you will question them.

Then you will question life and everything in existance and you will start growing your beard and hair because you will assume the hair dresser and clippers are out to kill you

Soon you will stop paying your mortgage and rent..

And you will be on the street warning everyone that judgement day is coming and then you will look back at what birds told you and think "I should've just driven the f**king thing"

yep. Anyone can service it. All you 'need' to do is add it at the rate you're losing it, easier said than done lol.

Also, anyone want to buy a forged RB28Neo?

Now with actual seriousness.

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
