Hi Chris, I thought it was neutral to check level? Or is park okay? I went through gears tonight after warming her up and she dropped revs to a smooth idle ....... before it got too late... just didn't get to check the level and top her up.... I got the thump as she went into reverse and all gears.... seems to be engaging gears.... just hoping she moves without losing drive or slipping......

Can you arrange a group buy please Ian ???.... :biggrin:

Well she is off her blocks and level on the ground....... all ready for me to check the fluid level tomorrow.... I need to warm her up do the gear change and check the fluid level in neutral..... but too late for all the kids in the close.... lol I am at work tomorrow and going to use some of my leu time owed for a long lunch and test drive....hopefully........ if I get the time........ the advantage of working 5 minutes away from my work.... lol If she is okay then I shall be changing out the brake fluid before JAE........ as this hasn't been changed for a long long time.......

Getting there Gaz....... praying she is ok....

Mine doesn't have any and passed the MOT....???? Never heard of the need for them...... if exhaust is secured, why would they fail it? Mine is fixed to the engine at one end and 6 hangers on rear boxes..... 3 each side.....

I will have a look in my box of bits in case neither Mark or Baz have any........ lol

Well she is back together again, fluid is in... About 3.5 litres, will have to warm her up and test tomorrow as too late and small children are all in bed asleep now... Fitted new Nismo transmission mount.... Will she be ok????? Bets please.....

I fitted the sump and gasket tonight........ going back out to fill with some fresh Dexron III and fit Nismo transmission mount ........ I will soon see if she lives...... Just need to work out how much to put in...... fully drained box and cooler...... 8.3 litres - torque converter = ? Anyone know how much fluid the torque converter takes? I also need to know which oil cooler line coming from the auto box is the in and which is the out...... fitting external filter so need to know which line goes to where......????

I picked up my new transmission gasket from Mike at MJP..... Drilled out the snapped bolts and rethreaded the holes.... I cleaned and sprayed the transmission sump in black metallic pearl paint... as I only had this in the garage.... lol Looks pretty anyway.... Tomorrow is refit new gasket and sump and refill with fluid..... then testing time..... I also had a look at my new external transmission filter I got from the states, but need to know which pipe is in and which is out from the auto box? Anyone know?

Well the big push for JAE looks to be over...... Missed the ticket deadline as I didn't realise there was one....... my fault for not checking...... DOH! So no rush to get her done now...... my luck seems to have deserted me in the past few weeks......... lol

For a moment I thought you had a ticket I could have.... lol Oh well looks like I wasn't meant to go this year........

Turns out the advanced tickets finished Yesterday at midnight..... not tonight....... GARY......... lol

If you have one spare ........ Please............ lol

Well tickets option has been missing since 9pm and not midnight....... so looks like I won't be coming at all now........???
