hey guys,

i don't know if there's already a thread on this or not but i have a 1994 r33 gts-t auto and am realy wanting to converting it to a manuel. i was thinking bout a 6-speed over the 5-speed. will the 6-speed box fit and i was wondering if there is any recommended places to get the required peices for the conversion. any help on this would be great. i'm realy getting bored of the auto. it's realy not for me.

cheers, :worship::spank:

I looked into it and it was VERY VERY expensive to convert it to a 6 speed. It was actually cheaper to go to a 6 speed toyota box then to go with a nissan one. I wanted to upgrade from the Auto too but I went for a ride in an R33 with a "tricked up" auto box with a manual valve body and it launched harder then most of the manual ones I have been in (keeps boost through gear changes). It would be cheaper to rebuild the auto and then to convert it to a manual.

But if you really want to convert it then you will need lots of new items. Make a list first of all the new parts needed to convert it over.

Here are a few things you will need;

Gearbox

Gearbox crossmember

Tailshaft

pedal assembley

clutch master cylinder

clutch slave cylinder

clutch

flywheel

bell housing

center console

dash cluster

computer

some fluid lines

manual spigot bush

I dont think that this is all but the majority of the parts needed, best of getting a manual box that you know is good, maybe a recent rebuilt one or a new recond one.

hope that helps

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
