7 speed good it just can not believe this.

I believe many members of this website. The model gear automatic start and adjust the strength increase I myself, after I adjust the strength to give up. And the strength level is satisfied next five forces that Power 441HP @ 7526rpm Torque 423Nm @ 6436rpm, and it can not do it anymore because of gear. There are no parts that I used to add architectural equation. Not even standards of service parts. I believe many people are concerned at this point. And I wanted to give everyone on the Web and a knowledge of this Help find a solution before all the people think offline.

what in the hell did you just say?

shumby 12-07-2010 05:58 AM

f you had a littel bit of tact you would realize that he is from Bangkok and english is not his first language. Even I can understand that he is having issues with the power of the kit and the 7AT not handeling it. Sounds like he has a few gears slipping. I have this same issue with mine. Seems like he is being a good form member and trying the best he can to get his message out theree to help others out. Next time try to help instead of being a bit of a dink.

OP. All i can tell you is i took 5th 6th and 7th gears out of my transmission. They are all slipping. My failed 7AT transmission is on its way down to Sam at GTM to get looked at and rebuilt. Only after that will Sam know more. This will take time i know but until then we will just have to wait.

You could try looking into level 10 and what they can offer you. But I had contacted them and they lied to me saying they have already built 30-50 of the 7AT transmiossion. There is no way in hell this is true as this transmissioin is to new. So becareful if you talk to them.

tkfracing 12-07-2010 06:19 AM

Excuse me, is that you understand. English, I would not be good enough. I will try to write better. But I believe that you will probably know what the problem is. And I want everyone to tune the car is to have more horsepower. You guys will see the problems ahead. We may find a solution before

There may have been some posts regarding this problem, but this is the first I've heard of any problems with the 7AT. Have there been many 7AT problems with the stock set up, or is the addition of the power kit the culprit?

shumby 12-07-2010 07:07 AM

no issues with the stock set up i have headrd of. Mine was a direct relation to the SC and the TQ. So far i got 70000 km on my 09 FX50S with the same trans with no issues.

Fezzik 12-07-2010 07:25 AM

From what I read did he actually adjust his hp and torque to the point where it was slipping. If so this is invaluable information.

tkfracing 12-07-2010 07:50 AM

The sharing of information resulting from the use. In order to update and correct such defects. Would regularly throw switches with everyone in this website.

weiboy718 12-07-2010 08:05 AM

At least he's making very close to The advertised numbers.

Op, what other mods do you have on the car?

Z eliminator 12-07-2010 08:48 AM

Acording to my Nissan dealership the 7 At has no servisable parts. The tranny fluid is long lasting and does not require changing for an extented period of time.
I spoke to Sam at GTM and there will be parts coming soon.
My stage 2 GTM SC will need some upgrades.

shumby 12-07-2010 08:49 AM

elim I would not bet on too soon. VB yes but trans build might take a good while

Z eliminator 12-07-2010 11:08 AM

Il be happy with the VB and the Converter.
My best guess on the Tranney would be late 2011.
Im also going to tune it with the uprev.

" im happy for you that you got your SC before mine "
my tranny still shift great with 320 rwhp.

you got the first SC and the first blowen 7 AT.

RCZ must be dissapionted as no stillen SC has yet toasted a 7 AT.
Must be a bad tune or they have no power at all.

christian370z 12-07-2010 12:34 PM

Those are some nice power numbers! You can find someone who can work on the computer controlling the transmission to adjust the shift logic a bit but the only real fix will be valve body upgrades and maybe internals which is in the works.

Your car looks so righteous with BBS LMs paired with the Amuse kit. :)

shumby 12-07-2010 12:52 PM

^^^ driving conditions? do you regularly drive HWY at 130km/hr plus and then step on it in DS or D mode?

Edit: Looks like who ever posted above me removed their post.

He said he has an awesome car (with problems but more awesome than most) and that he's from Bangkok.

tkfracing 12-07-2010 06:05 PM

I think the first thing we need is the VB first, mainly because it makes the clutch plate is broken by a VB can not accommodate the increased capacity. Cause of the symptoms, clutch slip and cause damage. Now my car can only use 1-4 gear.

Staples 12-07-2010 09:55 PM

So why are the twin turbo guys with automatics not having issues when they're making A LOT more torque? I guess it's based on driving habits, but still...

toner123 12-07-2010 10:14 PM

To answer your question. I want to say shumby was one of the first 7AT with FI. Also it is safe to say that he had the most miles on his car. I think it is just a matter of time. Also while shumby was on the rig his wife was driving his car so it never rested.

Legz 12-07-2010 11:33 PM

weird it's always gear 5,6,7 that's slipping, it should have more stress on gear 1-4 no?

The 5th, 6th and 7th gears are the weakest gears in the transmission sense they are mainly designed for less load capacity and fuel economy . Those clutches are also smaller then the other clutches.

^^ sam i get home nexdt week. expect a call to see about me getting the trans shipped down to you.

Only TT guys I know of are either on the 5AT or only had the TT on their 7AT for few miles. plus if you are only doing city driving the top gears do not get hammered. I however to the majority of hiway driving.

So you disasembled the transmission and found that the clutch bands had broken from overpower?

Line pressure can be controlled from the ECU to firm up or soften shifts -- that's why it feels softer in D and harder using the paddles.

Blue370tt 12-08-2010 08:16 AM

Shumby could have a point or it could be something else. Outside of the Bangkok TT guy I have heard of no other TT 7AT issues. And the truth is, we cant really tell what he has done. I have about 2000 miles on my tranny AFTER the TT install and push it hard daily and weekly. I have NEVER had any slippage AT ALL. I have the biggest tranny cooler you can get on mine (the Dawg) and hope it helps. I am not a mechanic BUT the SC problems could be tied to where/when the SC delivers its HP and TQ versus where/when the TT does. Just my 2 cents. Blue

I dont think this could be more pathetic if you tried. Its just SAD that I come up in random unrelated threads where I haven't even posted. Simply Pathetic.

shumby 12-08-2010 08:51 AM

Sam

Meaning the car should not be driven in D at high speeds? Maybe the tranny will survive if it's driven with M mode due to more line pressure... Maybe that's what the TT 7at guy is doing.

Hope you are shooting over some of your knowledge to Frank at Hill's Garage in Maryland... The stage-2 TT install will begin this Saturday the 11th!!

My 7-AT TT build thread will begin shortly....collecting substance.

Cyberium 12-10-2010 12:43 AM

This thread reminds me why I'm scared to TT my 7 AT. I think I'll stick with basic bolt on's

shumby 12-10-2010 03:56 AM

^^^ no need to be scared. just wait for the trans upgrades to come out. keep following me and my progress and when the parts and upgrades come out give me 6 months of driving if it held up until then then there should be no issues. I don't mind being the test pig. It is going to help alot of you out.

dnasty370z 12-10-2010 10:11 AM

I want this dudes rims......lol

Z eliminator 12-10-2010 11:50 AM

Hope fully i will have the first GTM built 7 AT on my stage 2 GTM SC.
I will give it a good work out at the drag strip.

Shumby ' it good to know that your wife drives your car harder than you do "

Generous!!

You had the Stillen SC correct? Now on to the GTM TT? Nice.


Field trip to GTM!!!

shumby 12-10-2010 12:42 PM

hell no stillen SC for me I choise the one that works the GTM that is why Sam is getting my trans to rebuild

I retract my earlier statement on the Stillen. For that I apologize, it was an uneducated guess.

My 7AT goes under the TT knife tomorrow. GTM stage 2 will be the poison. But, from your past experience log, I should take it a bit easy until a proven remedy is blessed upon us.

Come hither Sam and rid us of this slippage!!!
