So i just changed my fluid, only added 1 bottle there was none in there, somethings leaking.

Im driving it with out the shift boots or anything so i can see the ground as i drive.

Floor it in 2nd, just as i top off the gear ka blam!

i get sprayed by hot oil from the top of the shifter ( the shifter was in )

anyone know what the hell is up, right now the fluids really low

umm ya!...there is a smaller boot under the shift boot that looks like a cv boot that acts as a seal for the top where the shifter plate is...yours seems to be missin or is bad...you can fix it with a universal cv boot and just cut it down..or get a new one from nissan..

might i sugest some medium grade redline (shock proof) gear oil too!

good luck bro.
