  1. looking for nismo gauges for r34 gtt

    im looking for both sets of nismo gauges the main cluster in a manual type and the 3 pod cluster, for a r34 gtt skyline.

    if anyone has them or know of someone that has them a are able to help get them to Canada that would be awesome

  2. Toyota have a 6 speed Getrag - maybe someone in the States makes an adapter plate - and get an R34 GTR diff (3.545:1)

    Just had a look on TradeMe and used RB25 boxes are $2k - $2500!

    Have you checked to see if you can buy them brand new from Japan?

    There are a couple of threads on this site with instructions and a parts list for the manual conversion - the centre console may be hard to come by as well.

    the toyota 6 speed getrag is just to expensive for just a swap as its around $8000us. for the build i plan on doing down the road it will be perfect,

    and by the time i import the used 5 speed box it will be around the 4-5k, im looking for something i can use without costing crazy money until i do my build.

  3. The problem with the 5 speed swap is the transmission is getting hard to get a hold of in and around Canada because all the 240's the s14/15 and Silvia guys are converting their cars to the 5 speeds from the r cars because it's a better trans

    And I would prefer something in a 6 speed setup as I do lots of highway driving

  4. just wondering which transmissions are a good swap option?

    i have been hearing about using the trans from a 350/370z as well as the 5 speed swap and the getrag swap.

    all im looking for is to change from my auto trans to a manual.

    what do you guys have for options if they are not listed here?

  5. Well right now I only have a stock automatic transmission and I have to keep that in mind when buying parts until I get either a stock 5 speed or get the v160/161 getrag. the arashi is a good price at 950 Canadian shipped to me. I don't really have a budget for upgrades just what ever will work with this transmission for now. And my mechanic prefers Japanese built equipment and I trust him in that regard as he has built lots of high horse power skylines over his many years

  6. well since the canadian dollar went to shit against the us dollar my original plan had to be postponed my plan for the car is to use an n57 bmw diesel with a v160/161 getrag supra transmission, everything im doing right now is just to have a bit of fun until the dollar is more reasonable. i have the type b poncams being installed as well as an n1 water pump aluminum rad with 2 - 12" fans, i think i have found a turbo now Arashi TD06H-AR3, i also have a rc-turbo neo intake and throttle body on order, and am just waiting on hybrid performance to have a manifold ready to be able to order it.
