I was at the track last night and my transmission/tc started slipping in 2nd gear. It appears that I really need to watch how many runs I try to make before the transmission gets sloppy. I believe it is heating up and requires 30minutes plus to cool down. I am looking into a valve body upgrade now, but I want to add a tranny cooler and temp gauge. Anyone have any recommendations on gauge or tranny cooler. I was thinking of just going to Uhaul and getting a tranny cooler. Should I get mechanical temp gauge or electric?

HELP...

 

hehe I still have a 5at tranny sitting in my garage out of a 03 G35 sedan with 7500 miles on it.

sorry

 

Hey Dude
trans. cooler = summit recing about $80 for GM V8 cooler
Apexi El Oil Tem. gauge = Gauge $189 + con. Unit = $99

this is what looks like

 

What happened to your other thread asking for the best tranny cooler?

Anyways, does the 5AT have a drop resistor? If so, here's the link on how 4AT guys do this:

How do you like your valve body upgrade? Did you have Stillen do it?

 

I guess that's a no comment.

 

I'm also on the other threads asking for advice as well as trying to explore this drop resistor deal.

If you were talking to me Ice

 

Okay...thanks.

For some reason, I get notifications to the other forums, but not this one for some odd reason.

Oh well. I think you'll definitely like this mod to decrease slipping, heat, and although the 5AT gear changes are probably faster then the 4AT, a little less delay.

 

The 5AT shifts slow!
