Hey guys, im gathering parts to convert my car from auto to manualand have a few questions. The box ill get will most likely have no flywheel/clutch combo.

Few things, should i keep my auto diff?, what clutch/flywheel would suit my application??

Im going for a power goal of around 250rwkw, and would try getting as high as 300rwkw in good time. Im slowly gathering bits here and there, looking for good deals.

1) who's this Jim Berry guy i keep hearing about?, im in NZ, and theres no one like him down here. I would have to get a clutch imported from aus to nz if i go with this guy

2) whats a good flywheel?i heard lightweight ones are good?, and also learnt there can be clutch/flywheel combo packages though osgiken etc.....

3) what other things should i factor in when trying to go rb25det auto to manual in r33 skyline series 1

all in all will ~$3250-$3500 be all i need to gather bits including the box?

jim berry is an awesome clutch builder... give him a call tell him ur power goal and the purpose of the car (ie. drift drag etc)

he will build u a decent clutch

also search around for a pedal box.. they are hard to find.... try and find someone with a r33 front cut that they want to get rid of and offer them money for the manual pedal box

    • Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.
    • I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?
    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
