Default Mishimoto MMTC-U Transmission Cooler 5AT



I tool all morning long to install this, four hours. I have the VQ35HR and found a hole for the feed line to mount, but the cooler was too big horizontally to fit. I had to rig it to mount on the Mishimoto Oil cooler with 4 Nylon radiator bolts. I merely tapped the return line and checked Matic "S" fluid and only added about a pint. Drilling was necessary for the return line. Maybe Stillen would have been my better choice. This was best bang for eighty-three bucks, universal.

Good luck on finding pic by pic write up DIY in this or wikipedia.

I even used a 1/4 fuel line male to male coupler because I felt the mishimoto drain **** was useless.

Lol true, thank you. Had spacers, they were ruined in a recent car crash. Got another set of spacer but found it as a hassle to keep taking them on and off to get sized for wheels. I have already been sized for Casa Viaggio Wheels AV02s and are in route approximately 2 weeks.

Thanks J. @mic your correct. I had the tomei and added Art pipes and it was too much for me. Sold the tomei and was browsing craigslist waiting for an S tune when i came across the fujitsubo rep. 3 inch single to dual. Tips were small on the Niz so i added some 4.5 inchers to finish it while i wait for an s tune to come up

I didn't do it intentionally, but an act of God did something for my Z. Ran over something driving home through a bad storm. Heard a sound somewhat like my car being assraped by the Devil. Pulled over and thought I might have sucked in water or something worse. Eventually found the issue when I looked underneath the car. Thank God for Z1 because a new shroud came like two days later.

Boom! There you go. It's a easy and fun mod to do for your Z. After 3 days of driving I found about 1 teaspoon of oil in the catch can. Great mod imho.

Daytime white LEDs in back for daytime running, amber LEDs in lateral facing park tied into turn signals.
