For $1000 dollars I'll do it here at home, yes I am qualified. :thumbsup: Seriously to remove a auto and fit a manual is not going to cost a grand. Its an afternoons work at best. These performance shops make me mad, they'll build you a motor super cheap, but any job that should be easy, whaamo, big bucks, I cant work them out. I used to work at a Importer in Adelaide and we were charging $1500 fitted inc parts. (obviously not rb25 box, but other vehicles)

sorry but i think i would rather tilbrooks do it and at a work shop for that matter other than someone claming to be qualified and do it from a back yard! $1500 wow why even write that because we are talking about RB25 gear boxs not other cars so your quote doesnt even make sence and to remove an auto and fit a manual in a RB25 isnt an afternoon job!! oh but you know more tho

I am with kelly on this one....if i was getting a big job like this done then i would be making sure that a reputable workshop does the job instead of a backyard job......even though you prob are qualified and experienced MYRB30 but i still would take it to a workshop.....

I recommend Tilbrook auto and dyno, Nissan specialists, and you get what you pay for, just remember who built and who is the crew chief of the leading Drift Australia car at the moment, mark tilbrook. it just shows their quality of work. :D

:teehee: you are a very blunt tool in the shed my friend and go back to the place you crawled out of idiot thats why tilbrook has a bigger business than you cause you do this shit all the time :banana:

i agree with getting a bigger workshop to do it out of peace of mind sort of thing, however, you dont need to have a large business to know what you are doing. I know of a few people that aren't in the trade but know endless amounts about cars etc. Sometimes having a big business doesn't necessarily mean your better but i agree, its best to get a workshop to do it if you dont know anyone in the know.

ive done a few manual conversions and i would imagine its as simple as, spigot bush, slave/master, clutch, flywheel, gearbox, corssmember, tailshaft, interior parts etc...nothing too strenuous.

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
