I would like to know what is the different between the auto and manual version of a R33 GTST, as i am looking at getting a auto (got offer a very good deal) and then converting to a manual!

so apart from the gearbox is the diff / gear / computer different?

also do they have differen spec in the engine? or use different computer?

etc, so just anything else that you can think of!

thanks guys .... any help will be very much appreicated!

cheers

Edited by royal

have you tried searching?

I think the ecus are different as the computer has to handle the auto gear changes. not positive on that tho.

then theres the usual interior stuff like gear surrounds, clutch, pedals etc etc

Thanz guys for the input!

SO I would like to know more on the different in the DIFF!!!

is this important/significant in terms of performance/strength???

Do they have the same final drive gear ratio?

Cheers

Where does it say that there is a power difference from auto to manual? I was under the impression that they all have the same flywheel figures regardless.

Nah he's right.. Auto's have 180kW/275Nm

Yep, i've got it in an article somewhere...

sure?

i thought power levels were the same

obviously it would have less at the wheels due to extra drivetrain losses..

i want proof...

well i cant find the articles

i have no reason to lie about it...

the article was all about s1's, probably back when they were still new-ish...auto 180kw, manual (whats a series 1 engine put out? 184-185kw?)

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
