Autobox ALC
As far as i know yes it will be ok on a N/A The ALC holds and increases line pressure prior to gear change,snaps it into gear like a manual in some ways,stops the delay and slight slip when changing gear. Its makes no difference if driving normaly,it only starts to work when you realy go hard on accelerator.A great mod in my opinion,have had one on every Z ownend :cool: Tony

If you take you pads out and grease up the shims at back of pads with copper slip etc you will find the noise will go (dont do what someone did once and put copperslip on pad face :rolleyes: not me by the way),Tony :)

TPS and Autobox
Ok,have done some reading on this,but best to look at this, http://www.300zx.co.uk/cgi-bin/manual.cgi?list=at&dir=&config=&refresh=&slide=58&cycle=off&scale=0&design=default&total=194 "A" when ign on should read battery voltage,when ign off should read 1v or less. TPS check as follows, http://www.300zx.co.uk/cgi-bin/manual.cgi?list=at&dir=&config=&refresh=&slide=53&cycle=off&scale=0&design=default&total=194 Hope this helps Tony :)

Help required please dead autobox
Replacement no,unless you going to go manual route,i just recently paid £999 to have mine sorted,it is an uprated torque converter and box anyway but after 3 years of abuse all i had was 1st and 2nd and slipping,the price included all parts and labour,well impressed,took em 5 days in total, 3 days of that waiting for parts,just a thought is the oil reddish still in colour,another thing,smell it,mine was red and smelt burnt,when they dropped the sump there were bits of this and that in there etc.According to this chart you may have bad linkage or even Torque converter probs,or line pressure fault :( http://www.300zx.co.uk/cgi-bin/manual.cgi?list=at&dir=&config=&refresh=&direction=forward&scale=0&cycle=off&slide=94&design=default&total=194

Auoto box problems again
You may have the ALC loom connector too tight(the big centre nut)if overtightened it can cause all types of woes,do it up finger tight then half turn with socket,best do both ends(disconect battery first then auto ecu will reset,hope, this helps :) Tony
