Hey all.

Does anyone know who stocks Nissan Matic S auto trans fluid? I am assuming that most Nissan dealers would but I am also assuming that they will charge typically ridiculous dealer prices for it. Does anyone else in Aus stock it?

Cheers

Al

I don't know if you can even get Matic S from Nissan Aus; last time I asked, I got a blank stare.

Any reason why you wouldn't use Matic J?

If you're after a full Synthetic Nissan suitable ATF; Nulon Full Synth is excellent.
Many NM35 Stagea guys have been using it for extended periods without any issues, and on high powered cars.

You can import some from the Us of A. But it will be shipping not air freight, take forever, and most likely be expensive.

Or you can go down to your Nissan dealer and buy matic J, service your car, and get on with life ;)

ANY nissan dealer can/will get nissan matic D/J (or XYZ!) for you. . .if i remember correctly the last one i got was approx $60 for four litres

the aftermarket equivalant was around the same price

Where are you using it then if not to service the gearbox?

Nulon synthetic is cheaper than Matic J...

Options include, but no limited to

Putting under the rear wheels, so skids can be achieved.

Running it in grandmas 87 corolla, that hasn't seen a service since GW Bush Snr toddled through Iraq the first time

Running it in my daily shopping trolleys manual gearbox because race shift fast change.

Theres also a Penrite Fluid which meets Nissan Matic standards, I have linked to it below; Also which kit transgo kit did you buy?

The Nismo Shop do it pretty reasonable if you buy a few bottles at a time, shipping is about $80 for 4 bottles/3.8L. If you're in WA I'm happy to split shipping with you.

I have just found a place here in Perth that has a 20L can with a dent in it so they'll give it to me for $50!!! Normally $350-$400. Score!!!

I thought they didn't ship internationally?

"This product ships UPS ground only. WE CAN'T SHIP FLUIDS INTERNATIONALLY!!!!!!!!!"

BTW I was just quoted $350 + GST ($385) from a Nissan Melbourne dealer for a 20L drum of Nissan Matic S. I want to use the right stuff but ummm... yeah, nah. Nengun sell it for $190 AUD a 20L drum but my account doesn't work and I don't know if that's shipped or not. I can also see it on Alibaba Express direct from Japan but can't get a price without an account.

My understanding is the Matic S, while a replacement for the J, is really only required for the 7 speed autos?

Mine being a 5 speed I'm going to ask if they have Matic J in stock, how much and can I use that.

Makes me wonder how old their stock is given S came around circa 2008-2009?

    • A locally delivered Infiniti have remote start installed but don't come with the remote start key. You need a new remote start key and they just need it programed. And this is different to making/programing a new key that just starts the car.  
    • Cheers, and cheers for sharing so much of the build and also sharing the glimpse of what turns out to bring a lot of us poor decision makers together haha.  I do recommend learning more about how to manage it, if not considering getting a  formal diagnosis.  The discussion with the psychiatrist I got my diagnosis through was quite eye opening, things I'd not even considered to be ADHD related and hadn't mentioned were things she asked about out of the blue and were common themes with people with my flavour of ADHD.   It's not a label for people who are hyperactive and ill-attentive, there's more to it than that and some of it can be much more challenging or damaging - though there are of course two sides to the thing, and a lot of the stuff we have to go through and work on to live with it make us effectively "better" at other things as well. Aside from the fact that there is some argument I could have a bit of ASD seasoning in there (came up during the diagnosis, and neurodiverse things seem to not stay as a cookie cut) I suspect you need to learn more about ADHD if you are puzzled about how hyperfocus could possibly apply.  I *do* personally use "superpower" with quotes deliberately, but it's 100% an ADHD thing due to the exact reason that lack of focus is also an ADHD thing... Loosely speaking the inattentive side of ADHD isn't the inability to focus, it's the inability to control where the focus goes.  Not being able to sleep because brain is more interested in thinking about a stupid thing I said to a girl I liked 30 years ago, not being able to focus on work because my brain is more keen on putting together the torque management strategy we're going to try out with a drag car next weekend, not being able to focus on a conversation with someone I WANT to listen to and respect because there is a flickering light in my peripheral vision.    If I could just stop work and build the torque management setup right there and then I'd not hear anything else until it was done.  
    • Maybe you should do some more reading.  Google positive effects of ADHD and you'll get your answers.  One of my personal downsides of ADHD has been talking before I think.   Maybe you have it too?
    • Excuse me for butting in....but which part of ADHD can be considered a superpower? I would have though it far more likely that some ASD comorbidity is more likely to be contributing to an ability to hyperfocus on something. ADHD being aimed somewhat in the other direction. My shed looks like your shed. My whiteboard list of unfinished projects has entries going back 15 years. I know what you're talking about - I just struggle to connect ADHD to the results being discussed.
    • Thanks for reaching out!  It's a blessing and a curse at the same time.  I'm undiagnosed but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see it in me... I have more half started projects laying around my house, shed, garden, etc taking up space and money, destroying aesthetics than if I added up all of my mates projects together. But, ADHD gives me the ability to hyper focus on things that no mere mortal could even  comprehend.  A recent pool build is an example of that....  I dont know anyone else that would be dumb enough and focused enough to take on then complete something of that magnitude. I call ADHD a superpower but it can equally be completely destructive if not controlled and focusedon the right places. Addiction is a major concern to ADHD people and thankfully my addictions have been no worse than projects, XBOX, chocolate and being an arsehole! It's often hereditary and my 13 year old son is currently learning how to drive it at the moment. Keep lurking! If i can finally finish this bloody thing at some point it will be a win for all of us ADHD'ers! 🤪
