  1. If the above is your car, then my auto is taking a BW EFR quite nicely.
    It also looks like those are UK (?) plates, which would make shipping astronomical, I'd wager!
    If there's no local knowledge on the gearbox (and there really isn't here either tbh, I got really lucky) it would almost be worth calling around your local performance/drag racing shop and seeing what they can do or whether they are receptive to it.
    There's TCU's around for sale that drive auto gearboxes that can (and do!) wire into the factory wheel paddles.
    EG: https://www.powertraincontrolsolutions.com/Performance_Aftermarket/Products/Transmission_Products/TCM-2000_Transmission_Controller/
    (or the new 2800, I have the 2000, well I'm trying to sell the 2000).

    That option however is expensive, because it's what I did and I lucked out on someone who knew the gearboxes. Literally exhausted options and asked someone at work whos partner "is a mechanic and may know someone" just turned out to be an expert in that specific type of thing.

    It cost me about $10,000AUD once all was said and done, when you factor in the cost of torque converters, coolers, lines, hoses, sensors, labor of gearbox coming in out in out in out, flex plates (stock one does NOT handle the power), the TCU, the TCU tuning, and all the magic custom work that went into the actual gearbox, and I'm trying to sell it for $3500 so it goes to show that the money doesn't come back to you if you can find someone who will do the overhaul.
    I would almost say this is a scenario where selling car and buying something like an Evo X or a Golf R or something that comes with a DCT nowadays is going to be a better car for your needs.

    Dude any chance you find out a shipping quote to mainland England uk for transmission the uk is crap for automatics I've tried a few big garages with no joy as of yet I don't need to sell my r34 I have a r35 gtr as my daily running phase 5 ecutek 650bhp so I don't need to use skyline much but the r34 was the dream so it has to be done some how very interested in your box now what does it come with ?
    Thanks for help appreciated [emoji1303]
