Update on my car

Nissan called and told me stuff I already knew.
They are like your transmission has messed up again and we will be replacing the whole thing again. I'm like wondering how in the hell could this be. Level 10 plus nissan tranny should hold up to one night of street racing with the dallas 5th gen guys. I also have busted radiator hoses. Everything should be ready in a week. I think its time to trade the car in after that. Oh well.

MONKEYNESS~!
Doesn't L10 have the lifetime warranty on your tranny ?
Was it Stage 3 build or VB/TC individual buy-in ?
Oh trust me the tranny will be fixed from l10.
it was built by the dealer.
I think that was my mistake

Which dealer built it ? A Tranny shop w/ L10 components ?
Or was it a tranny shop who built it using "their" components ?
L10 won't fix something that wasn't touched by a L10 Tech in NJ.

Medicsonic had a problem which turned out to be a kinked tranny cooler line, I had a problem too, but it was from my car sitting in a body shop for over a week.

Well keep everyone posted man...
I will.
The mechanic said that the vb and TC were still good.
So lets see what a new tranny with that vb and tc does.
If not i'm gonna raise all hell and get a 5 speed

I don't mind the work, its the research of finding someone who has done it, and then planning out every move, and placement of mounting hardware, and cutting. Some optional painting to make it look OE, but I know I might have some leakage from outside.

do you need some jb weld?
hehe
the factory is 10 miles north of my school

At least L10 is in my backyard.

I'm running 75shot ZEX for the last 2 days, and I've been having fun all night long, choosing who to eat up.
My blower is coming back from IMPUL, and then its off to Powerdyne to finalize out Kit pricing, and any other support we may need. On a 2.93" Pulley IMPUL said I was pushing 11Psi @ 6500. The 2.70" Pulley pushed a monster 14 Psi. Cfm ratings to come in soon.
I won't reveal the HP levels til everything is Green Light. Only thing stopping is STILLEN's whining about the S/C Bracket as it is fairly identical to theirs, so minor tweaking is needed or if I keep the bracket the way it is, then its my kit and only my kit that is produced.
no dont give up, keep on truckin..

Why dont you ask them to put in the 2002 tranny? I hear its tougher than the 2ks or 2k1 trannys?!? Just a thought.
