Also, considering what the JWT TCU doesn't have the ability to control much electronically on an A32 tranny, since there really isn't much, I'd say snake oil and it are the same. Cooler's don't matter, so that item is irrelevant. As far as the L10, what does it have, VB mod?

Well, you just moved your mouth a lot, but really didn't say anything much. Like in freshman English comp class, where the requirement is a minimum xxx words. Could just say, you've got a +600 RPM stall, and a VB mod, make it more like a Tech writing class.

Less fluff, more content.

The TCU simply changes the shift points and has 3 different settings. Its not the best mod out there for our tranny but definitely improves upon the stock shift points which just plain suck. The intricacies of the VB recal are not something I would know. The tranny was heavily modified to suit the SC kit I bought from the same guy prior to my taking possession. and I beg to differ on the cooler. It is FAAAAAAAAR more efficient than the stock cooler/radiator

You're car is still considered stock

Just don't get a VAFC, EU or whatever over the summer and we're good.

Basically, don't fool with your wiring, no CEL's, you're good.

Is it in good solid running condition? Doesn't have any gimmicks?

I've been here for the better part of some peoples lives that are on here, I know what it does.

Hell, I fkn used to have that and a JWT ECU.

Heavily modded. FFS, gullible are we? I'd ask for receipts and options that are on it.

I think I'm just hungry.

great condition just an oil leak from not quite certain where yet. Possibly upper oil pan or timing cover or little bit of both. By the time you are ready I could already be on the FIC and might not be up for it though

I know the guy and the mechanic that did the work. Hell ask me for my receipt for my cooler and I would struggle. In the south your word matters a lot and I take there's. They only used top quality products and went the opposite of the cheap route, half the mods on my car are thanks to his wrecked 4th gen

It might just be me but I think mine has got worse. Used to be in between oil changes about a quart and a half would keep my level fine but now it seems like its creeping its way above towards 2. I know it needs more when the oil light stays on well past start up, usually about 5-10sec

Mine does the same ish, but usually 2-3 secs, not 5... 5 would terrify me....

My oil level is fine though.

It usually looses an ounce or two every time i stop.

See mine constantly drips from when it warms up to after I have shut it off and it cools down and the oil pressure drops down again. I would say about a droplet every 5sec maybe more maybe less. It makes it a pain in the *** to do any work on the pass side MY GOD

I will eventually fix it but really it isnt a problem now. Keeping my engine full of fresh oil is not a bad thing. Really all I should do is swap out the oil filter but the idea of pouring old oil back into my engine doesn't appeal to me

See this is where it gets weird, which is why i can see why the seller wouldnt know. The transmission bolts up to the motor without issue.

when i dropped in the motor and bolted up my stock mount thats when i found out the transmission side was too high.
So right now, is it as I described where the mount sits too high for it to bolt up to the tranny? Or are the mounting points completely off?

I would recommend buying a mount from the auto parts store just to see if it fits better. If not just return it. I think you're experiencing the same thing I did. That whole sentra/maxima hybrid tranny concept doesn't make sense because the sentra 6MT won't work with the 5MT bell housing.
