Wow guy's I just flushed my tranny with Amsoil ATF and what a difference I noticed over the Nissan matic-j. The fluid I replaced is not that old either, I had a complete flush done at 45K miles and I just turned 60K. Much smoother shifting and quicker as well, not shift kit quick, just seems like less slippage, reduced times between shifts in normal drive. I have not tried shifting in manual mode yet as I want put at least 100 miles on it to make sure all is well. I used 9 qts doing the DIY meathod to make sure I got as much old fluid as possible out. I wanted to use the Amsoil last time but wussed out until a few others had tried it first, I'm sorry I waited. If your thinking about using a better fluid (redline d4, Amsoil ATF, BG synthetic, Motul ATF) dont wait, just do it! I also used a bottle of Lubegaurd red with the new fluid, but I used that with the last flush and fill as well. Last summer I installed a B&M trans cooler and Magnafine inline filter. Thats all for now.
I plan on having my Transgo kit installed this summer by RT Tuning or possibly try it myself. I also want to install the deep pan at that time as well. Keep ya posted, if you have any questions or comments please feel free to respond.

A drain is about 5 Qts....When I installed my Transgo kit I used about 8 1/2....I think it's the same for a complete flush if not more

I did the DIY flush by draining the pan, refilling the tranny the disconnecting the return line and starting the car to flush out four more quarts and did this one more time.
I wussed out too on the first flush and fill, thats why I created this thread to let everyone who had doubts like myself to just go ahead and do it! You wont believe how the car feels.
CANT WAIT UNTIL THE TRANSGO KIT IS INSTALLED THIS SPRING!
