hey guys im new here and need some help fitting my short shifter.

i just purchased a car with a R34 box and a nismo short shift kit which likes to pop out sometimes and is very annoying to fit up along the side of the road.

as i never originally fitted it im not to sure how it's meant to go in.

below are some pics of what i've got - dont know what the o-ring things are for - however there is a ring in the selector column where i could 'make it fit'.

the way it was - the fat spacer thing went in first, then the shifter popped in, then the cover went on and with the 4 bolts fit intot the grove along the side.

cheers. chris.

It is basically the same for a R34.

And it doesnt look like you have a nismo shifter, the main shifter is black for the Nismo one I believe. You either have a C's or a copy.

Those metal rings that you have actually lock the shifter in place so it doesnt move out. They are kind of like clamps.

Hope that helps.

ok. well i've answered my own question then. the circlip things are there to hold the stock shifters in place.

it's the cover that goes along the top of the short sihter and has the clamps along the side which holds the short shift setup in place.

i just coudn't work out if there was anything else there to hold it in place.

    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
    • Thanks MBS206, i got that PDF but got abit overhelm with all the connections and tracing of wires. I wasn't expecting to plug the dash harness anywhere. i was just going to use my electronics jumper wires to plug into the right pins like ECU power, ecu ground, ignition trigger etc... I do have a few ratchet straps locking it down tight. Fire extinguisher ready and only a small amount of fuel at a time, enough to submerge the pump.
    • Thanks GTSBoy, i will do abit more digging. I am missing a blue relay near the ECU connector... so i will chase that up in the next few days as well  
    • https://yariksteel.ru/manual/R33/Skyline_R33_elektroprovodka.pdf   Page 18 should be what you want for the Dash Cluster wiring. Though, you don't need the dash plugged in to get the motor running. What you want is power as how GTSBoy said. You need to power the ECU. Find in the above link the ECU pin outs (Verify them before just connecting them up from things written on the internet). Find anything needing power, give it power, find anything needing ground, give it ground. Then give the starter motor power through a big cable, and bridge the solenoid on the starter straight to power too.  ECU will be on, and when you give the starter power, it'll spin the starter motor, and it should start. I also hope you have a proper stand, and not just the engine sitting on some wood. You will want it bolted down properly.
