After having a Keas stage 2 shift kit fitted to my car by Knox Automatics I decided to set up a group buy for them to show my appreciation.

For those of you who may not know of keas, they are regarded as one of the best in auto transmission components in Australia. www.keas.com.au.

Shifts are a lot more crisp and to the point.. just bang and straight into the next gear no mucking about.. love it and would highly recommend.

$300 shift kit

$55 deposit (returned once you standard valve body is sent back)

$30 postage to anywhere in Australia. This covers postage of the valve body to your door, and postage of your standard valve body back to Knox Automatics.

If you are in Melbourne, Knox Automatics can also install the shift kit for you.

$395 includes all parts and labour plus a transmission service. That's a bargain!

Shift kits available for:

r32-r33-r34 Skylines

s13 s14 s15 Silvia 180sx 200sx

300zx TT

This special offer ends has been extended due the the success of the group buy.

Now available until December!!

To order or for more information call Knox Automatics on 9764 2222.

Knox Automatics can also do full rebuilds, stage 1 and stage 3 shift kits, including Keas manualised autos. Mention this thread to receive a free transmission service with work conduction by Knox Automatics.

It's like the difference between HKS and Apexi, both top manufactures doing the same thing...

I guess in this case your comparing one of Victoria's best against one of SA's best... from what I understand both make very good shift kits

Paul at Keas is very good. He's doing some work for me out of this GB and has helped with all aspects of my rebuild (which I'm probably gonna regret but am trying myself). From the valve body rebuild he did for me through to recommending places over here in WA for me to get parts from to save me some shipping $$$$. He really went above and beyond.

I had organised to have one of the Keas shift kits installed but the guys were unable to because the Series 2 R34's have different valve bodies. :O Bert and Michael were top and honest guys to deal with and I would recommend Knox Auto's.

Just to help others out, there is a plate on the drivers side firewall, on the bottom is a code like RE4 01A or RE4 03A. These two codes are fine to upgrade, but mine had RE4R 01B - different valve bodies. Bit disappointed but if it can't be done, it can't be done. Just have to find something else to modify. :P

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
