Hey, I am in the market for a tranny cooler now and need to now the best brand and best size. I recall reading a thread about B&M {or was it B&P?} tranny coolers. I believe they are black in color? I would like to get a black one so it will blend in with my black car. Also I recall a felow member posting a link to his site that had pics and directions on the install,does anyone recall this link? I searched for the info but I think there was flame in the post so it got deleted.Also were is a good place to order a B&M tranny cooler? Please let me know what you about this mod. Thanks

 

That would be Greg P's site. You can see the install here--> http://grprete.jnet.net/Greg's%20Garage/1999%20Nissan%20Maxima%20SE/1999%20Nissan%20Maxima%20SE%20-%20Xmission%20Cooler.htm. You going to the Mass meet on the 28th? Wanna see the I30

 

Thanks for the Advice Mike. I will be at the meet for sure{with my SC instrutions for Dan}.

 

Hmm..tranny cooler for your manual I30?

 

Whats that supposed to mean?

BTW Mike the link did not work, I think his site is having some problems.

So does any one know were I can buy a B&M{or was it B&P?} cooler. thanks

 

The link didnt come out right. It was pasted right tho.. just highlight all the way to ......htm. then paste into yer address bar, and load..

 

hummmm......how do you hook up a tranny cooler to a manual? thats interesting....lets lighten the flywheel for the auto next...heeh

 

No man. I want to put a shorter shifter in my auto so I can shift faster =)

 

So I take it you can't put a tranny cooler on a 5spd? Thats all you had to say.

 

I would think Redline MTF (or Amsoil's 75W-90 oil) would serve your 5-speed just fine for your S/C I30....

The B&M tranny coolers you've heard mentioned here are for slushboxes only.....

You *may* want to install an oil cooler, but I wouldn't think it's necessary......

 

Thanks Bill, I have some Redline tranny fluid in there now. I have not had any heat problems that I no of but I am putting a 3.48 pully on soon and wanted a little extra protection. Ohh well atleast I will save $50.

 

Emax,
We are just messing around =) It gets kind of boring around here. We know you would figure it out. No hard feelings. I have no clue when it comes to 5 speed.

 

The installation guide is on Maxima.org:

I know, no hard feelings here. I am a little grumpy when I get up in morning{noon} lol. Thanks for the help.

 

You can add a tranny oil cooler to a manual trans but it's not really necessary; it's more worthwhile on autos.

I'd rather put in an oil cooler than a tranny cooler on a manual.
