freaksavior Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 If you got this far, you don't need the reassembly instructions... LOL yeah, I guess not. My brother and I were able to finish it, and then we just re-read it in reverse to put it back together. The bolts are all so similar, but with minor changes, so that did take a few minutes to figure out what went were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMLegacy Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Can you confirm that the drill bits are for the different Shift aggressiveness levels? I was reading something to that effect on a Nissan board but i can't find it back. Something about "Hot rod" setting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClimberDHexMods Posted February 11, 2016 Author Share Posted February 11, 2016 Climber D or anyone else in the know, if I got this right, both the 5eat and the RE5 TransGo kits are usable on our trannies? Thank you in advance! Correct [CENTER][B][I] Front Limited Slip Racing Differentials for the 5EAT now available for $1895 shipped, please inquire for details!

Thank you in advance! I just installed the RE5 Kit, same stuff, and $50 cheaper. Instructions are not for this VB though, so you will need to use this walkthrough.

mwiener2 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 (edited) Just did this. You should finish the re-assembly instructions and include the new Orange Spring. There is also a restrictor orifice that comes with the kit. TransGo wants you to install it in the transmission, not the valve body. I assume we don't use this for our cars? I also assume we're not supposed to drill out the plate holes with the included drill bits. Is this correct?

I JET Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) Can any knowledgeable folk on here confirm if the transgo kit is suitable for newer legacy gt 5eat's. I have an Australian delivered MY10 Liberty GT and i'd love to install this kit if possible. Edited November 16, 2017 by I JET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libacy GT Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Can any knowledgeable folk on here confirm if the transgo kit is suitable for newer legacy gt 5eat's. I have an Australian delivered MY10 Liberty GT and i'd love to install this kit if possible.I would love to find out the same thing, I have a 2010 Australian Liberty 5EAT gt as well and I am currently rebuilding my transmission. I don't think anyone in the US has compared the 4th generation valve body to the 5th Generation because they don't have the 5th Generation 5EAT in the US. They only have the 5EAT in their 3.6r legacy I think. But if the 5th Generation transmission is known as Jatco JR507E which is known as in the Nissan as RE5R05A, and trans Go have a kit for the RE5R05A, then maybe it should work on our 5th Gen? I would be willing to buy a kit and test it out. Unless someone knows for sure that it will be a complete waste of time.

I totally forgot about the us 5th gen gt only being available as manual. That explains the lack of info for the 5th gen 5EAT. I'm in the same boat as you, transgo don't list an email address, will have to give them a call....The time difference is not so bad with daylight savings, im gonna try give them a call one morning this week. This would be such a great mod for the gt, the way a stage 2 gen 5 auto gets off the line is just awesome, will only get better with snappy gear changes. I'll let you know what I find out. Thanks again Dan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again DanNo problem, yes please let me know how you go, I will as well. My torque converter and valve body are pretty much gone. So I'm doing a full transmission rebuild anyway, But without the valve body mod we won't be able to go for high power. I'm aiming for 450hp . Firmer shifting and gear change behaviour is essential for higher powered autos. Sent from my HTC_M10h using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMLegacy Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 That alone won't work, you need friction pack and a center diff that's up to the task. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Libacy GT Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 That alone won't work, you need friction pack and a center diff that's up to the task.Of course. I'm shot peening entire centre diff, alto clutch packs throughout, overhaul kit e.t.c. It's good that most of the 5th generation internals are the same as the 4th generation so I can use the same aftermarket clutch rebuild kits.

nevets27 Posted November 20, 2017 Share Posted November 20, 2017 Forgive for the possible noob question, but what does this mean for a 09 5eat owner? From what I gathered the kit and moded vb from hex only works for 05-07. The 5th gen that is being talked about, is it the same transmission as the 08-09 5eat?

Libacy GT Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 (edited) Valve body mod is only available from 05-07. The 5th Generation Australian liberty Gt 5eat is the exact same transmission as the Subaru legacy 3.6r in the US 08/09 gt valve bodies are different to the 05-07 valve body and our Australian 5th gen liberty gt valve bodies are different again to both Sent from my HTC_M10h using Tapatalk Edited November 21, 2017 by Libacy GT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moral hazard Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 Are there any updates on the 2010 5eat (or usdm 3.6r 5eat)? I'm tempted to purchase the kit for the RE5R05A and give it a try. Being a first attempt any hints or differences would be great to know. Also keen to know specifically what clutch packs people have used. Currently I'm just making do with the Requested Torque and Calculated Torque adjustments via romraider/ecuflash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ares3985 Posted July 1, 2019 Share Posted July 1, 2019 I saw you posted the instructions that come with it but it mentions a vb removal guide booklet. Do you have this? I want to remove mine myself and have a shop do the kit but have never done this before. I am pretty mechanical inclined but am nervous messing with this. Walkthrough for that would be great.

Berge56 Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 I followed the walkthrough and successfully upgraded 2 valve bodies. I am going to be doing my third in a week or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jayrex Posted July 2, 2019 Share Posted July 2, 2019 Pretty sure this video is what you need: I've done it a few times myself, its not too bad.

Never done anything on a trans so that’s why I’m a little nervous to dive in. Anything engine or suspension I will tackle but have never this. Guess it’s time to pop the cherry.

jayrex Posted July 3, 2019 Share Posted July 3, 2019 I'm going to have an extra stock VB for sale soon, if anyone needs it please pm me. Tested and working fine. It would be for 05 or 06 only. 5eat obviously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
