350z Transgo VB Question

Just recently bought a Transgo Valve body upgrade and I have a few questions I wanted to ask.

Firstly; does anyone know of a mechanic/transmission shop which can install the kit? Would prefer a trusted, or at least a person who has done it before but I know that may not be the case. I'd also like to know from anyone who has one installed if they noticed after a while more wear in the transmission itself than ordinary? I know with each modification done you will wear systems out faster but would like to know if anyone had horror stories. I've searched around on multiple forums to find a place and I've seen a lot of recommendations for this VB kit as well which is why I went for it.

I do but it could be a bit far for you if you are in Aus, the UK, the US or Christchurch. Put your hometown up.

Sorry forgot to put that one specific detail up. I'm in Perth and I can't really afford to drop the VB and send it either.

Most guys probably do it themselves - just be carefull to keep everything clean and watch out for odd parts falling out. Otherwise just ring around a few auto transmission shops for a quote.

That makes sense. For the most part I've done all mods so far myself but I don't trust myself still being a novice to touch a VB. I'll call some places like you suggested. Thanks for the info though.

      High temp brake fluid?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, back in the day..... "race" fluids, which were essentially only really "high temp" fluids, used to absorb water more readily. So they really needed to be changed more often anyway. The coincidence of that being directly necessary along with it being what racers would do as a matter of course was just fine.

      Does the high temp fluid degrade any different over time compared to normal one? That's one thing I've always been wondering. Because a track car is going to get the fluid flushed probably way more often than every two years and will see less kilometers driven. I would think the requirements are different. I'm running Motul RBF 600 in mine. Was recommended by my mechanic before a trackday and I've stuck with it since. Hasn't seen the track since but I've kept buying and using it for servicing anyway.

      The brakes are all stock bar some DBA slotted discs and the EBC pads and braided lines. The car has brake ducts as standard but they're kinda pointed in the general direction of the brakes rather than really getting at the heat source. I guess I should hit it with an infra red thermometer after a session and see what they're at.  100%! Its just a curiosity more than anything. As I said, high temp brake fluid was such a track day rage back in the day. From people I speak to at the track and threads on here everybody has their own take on it but I'm not gonna scoff at spending a few more bucks.    OH, a quick side question - would you use brake fluid from an opened container even if the lid has been on? Eg, if you have a bottle that you opened last time you flushed, it's been tightly closed, is it still good?
