i.e, smart people capitalize on other peoples money pits

Have you tried a GTT auto, big outlay for something that might not work I know, but if you are running out of ideas....and if you have the full loom there might be worth a shot
This is potentially becoming a 'solution'. I called MV autos and they said that their shift kit should (love that term) work fine on a GTT Auto box. Like said before, apparently electrically the box is the same, so I 'shouldn't' need to actually get a GTT box to make it work.
Not sure if you've tried this, but maybe call people recommended on this forum in NSW as well? I've only had simple problems in comparison, but calling people recommended on here helped me out. My local mechanic was questionable though...Another option is sending the car interstate, but at this point the costs are getting rather astronomical. Unfortunately not being technical it means that someone giving me instructions isn't going to work so well, I'd need something so mind numblingly step by step I'd have to pass on to someone who is handy with wiring, skylines, and this specific transmission.
Which I'm happy to call, find out, pay for, it just seems this person doesn't exist. Do not attempt, I guess, is the point here, lol.

Don't do this conversion. It will (one day) end in tears. Unavoidable tears. Tears that will result in regretting you ever doing this.

Well, today marks the 1 year anniversary my car disappeared into a workshop. I should go there and bring it a cake, or something. Actually, that'd be a really funny way of making a point, lol.
Anyone know of any shop that knows their way around R34 Triptronic wiring setups
Have tried/Enquired at:
RE Customs
Status
Sabbadin
Chasers
Racepace
Knox Automatics
Dr.Drift
(going to call the last couple in the sticky today)
May have to send the car to MV Autos in South Australia on a truck. Any info that leads to this getting fixed will be rewarded with a carton of a beer of your choice and/or equivalent spirit.

Is the box farked? are you sure its the ecu/auto trans thats causing issues and not the swapped wiring etc for the new engine. I.e was something missed? could be something simple like the speed sensor. or coolant temp sensor cause the limp mode.
If the mechanic couldnt get consult to work it sounds like something is very wrong with the wiring,
Ive seen R32 RB26's bolted to an auto from an r34 and that worked...in an r34 GT. so 1st things 1st find out why the ecu isnt giving any signals, because I'll bet the problem starts there.
Yep, thats what I'm going to get them (RE Customs) to do. I've also heard there's plenty of times this has happened, though noone ever has any details of the workshop that has successfully completed this. If someone has a name, and I can confirm that name so I can call them I'm happy to get the car sent there on a truck. Even if it's interstate.
I believe the issue is they couldn't get any signal from the TCM, or rather, a signal that they could interpret. Apparently its possible to bypass the seperate TCM entirely, and just set it up as you would with a normal GTT Auto, with the integrated TCM in the GTT ECU. Unfortunately there's a lot of 'apparently' and 'should' and 'I saw it once' and there seems to be no instructions on this anywhere, or at least in Victoria, lol.
The only info I have about the box being dead is, well, it wasn't dead when I was driving the car around for the whole month or so I drove it, and it wasn't dead when I drove it to the workshop. They arent even sure what combination of wiring they are even using now, given the fact they have the entire looms for GT, GTT Auto, GTT Manual and ECU's to match them all. But after a year, I doubt their enthusiasm to finish the job is sky-high.
So I live vicariously through this forum.
-
Wish I had an answer for this, the most detailed response I got was "its f**ked" and that they had stripped the car down to get access to all the wiring to no avail
..and noone else in the state wants to try their hand at it. Bit sad about it all, after spending a large amount of cashola on a shift kit and such on the box when I was under the impression that this would all work, a manual conversion to get this going pisses me off when I know that it should be 'doable' as opposed to dropping huge cash for a crap "i dunno lol /give up" solution.
-
Word of warning, and a big one. I could make it bigger but I'm disheartened and demoralized as it is to type bigger.
Do not attempt to swap a RB25DET Neo into a N/A AUTO skyline in Victoria. I realise this thread is about GT+T, which will be fine (until you get EPA'ed, and will be owned sideways with an undrivable car unless you remove the turbo) but a natural idea of "why not just put a turbo engine in?".. you will find there are no workshops in Victoria who will complete/take on this job.
Trust me, I know from experience, stuck for a year with a car that's had a swapped engine that looks like it'll never work with the auto box.
The best ultimate advice is to sell the car before you spend money on a GT+T and get EPA'ed, and buy a turbo car. Don't do anything else.
-
I may need to apologize as well my knowledge is not as vast as some, but could you use you None turbo ecu and nistune it. (assuming that it was not in limp mode befor you did the conversion).
That I don't know, I had thought about it. The problem is the workshop it is at doesn't do NISTune and there aren't many (any) workshops in Victoria that I have found that have ever, ever put a rb25det neo into a R34 N/A Auto.
Having no knowledge on it, I'd imagine the original NA loom won't work for the new engine. I'm willing to pretty much do anything at this point, the only info I've found about it in a year is posted by 666DAN who I might just pay to fly down and fix it, lol.

Car design these days seems to be set in "ITS 2010! ITS THE FUTURE! CARS SHOULD LOOK LIKE THEY ARE FROM THE FUTURE!"
Ugh.

R34 Coupes (and GTR) have indicators as the orange 'inner' round light, by design, stock, 100%, etc.
R34 Sedans, the indicator is different, seperated item meaning the "Oo oO" lights are all brake lights.
OP must have a sedan, and just merely saw a R34 coupe for the first time
-
sell it and buy a GTST already

Sorry, for playin dumb, but whats the kit??? when he has tiptronic already in the car....
I thought you could only get the full shift kit, is when you have an auto not tiptronic, the kit makes it into tiptronic, (or so to speak).... Cause when i ring up MV Auto's he told me that i could only get the valve body, since my car (R34 Gt-t) has tiptronic..... can someone make this clearer for me please???
It will make the triptronic box shift a lot faster than it does normally. The rest of the operation should be very much the same.
You can't get much clearer than that

You take offence when people assume the norm? Most 21 year olds with 100k+ cars do have wealthy parents. He had a question mark at the end of his sentence, not an exclamation mark...
It's fair enough, and tbh I reserve the right to mock those in the field of internet marketing, lol. I'd respect the lucky kid more.

I like how its not titled "Motorists are getting the message and driving safely"

yeah you can tell a lot about a forsale ad like tenfour said... Without getting too offtopic check my forsale ad out and tell me what you think?
carsales.mobi/cars/details/?R=8908813
Whats my carsales ad say bout me???
Edit. Nvm. I hate my phone seriously. If you really wanna see it... Search carsales. It's the only cefiro in wa for sale. Ha.
oh good that yours isn't standard cos neither's my ''ugly'' soarer..
[opinion]My god you make your cars ugly.[/opinion]
The second half of your carsales ad is excellent. I'd do much the same to sell a car. Funny gets the enquiries.
Unless the cars are fugly, ofc.

sounds reasonable

How about salvaging all of the bits from an AWD stagea? (rb25det neo etc)
Same type of deal?

4 months concurrantly while serving a 35 month sentence for fraud.. technically he got nothing at all for the Ferrari adventure...
-
I think it's pretty well proven a (very?) modded 32/33/34 can make a 35 look underpowered and heavy.... and considerably cheaper until people throw caution to the wind and mod the VR38 to levels the RB26 just can't get to
Mature people give the love for anything nice though!

lol, well feel free to replace accidental burnout with accidental loss of traction, shit I know (in the rare times ive actually had my car) that in the wet, taking off from lights when I am sitting on a tram track that this can happen.
I doubt thats gonna hurt anyone. I also really dont think I should lose my car over that. Could have happened in anything, but being an import the chances of you getting owned by the lovely police is supposedly a lot higher.
I just think the 'hoon' regulation should f**k off, culpable and reckless driving really should cover all road offences.

+1 the easiest way is to just put the HDD in another computer and not bother stuffing around with the old one
+2 for this

I'm all for serious punishment for serious callous crimes.
Car crushing for having fun in a car is ridiculous. There should be some lenience given for attitude, and mainly for an actual amount of risk/danger that the behaviour actually causes.
Doing 160kmh in a 60 zone, prob not advisable
Doing 130 in a 110 zone, very low risk if you're even semi awake
Accidental burnout at the lights = rolled eyes, and practically no danger.
Chances of something like this being implemented = 0

Daily. Spent a ton on a shift kit from MV autos. I generally like the ability to just put it in D when I just want to get around town. Its an option but f**k me its an expensive one especially if it's not necessary
