How r ya guys,

Im looking at putting a short/quick shifter into my car and was just wondering what people have used and what they think of it.

the 2 inparticular im looking at are the C's shifter and the Nismo Quick shifter(there are 2, this is the 25% less throw one, not the 10%).

Does anyone know how much the C's lessen the throw? The only thing nismo one is worth about twince the c's. But thats not really a concern over quality

cheers

James

Nismo make 2 for the R32 GTR Quick shifter(25%) and the slit shifter(10%, i think thats the name) i believe

looks like the C's maybe the way to go, cheers guys

c's shifter are fairly easy to get if u know where, got mine for $150 delivered, brand new from japan.

A lot of people I've spoken to over there say that the nismo one is a little nicer on the gearbox as it doesn't shorten the through all that much.

The C's one is a lot firmer and as 'yawn' said, it does take more energy to shift.

My mate has a nismo one in his S14 (diff gearbox i know) but it does fall into gear a bit easy than my C's. That said, mine is lot shorter throw.

I love C's shifters though, had them in all my cars and never a complaint.

Any more feed back about the C's shifters in RB25 GTST box? Just trying to decide whether to go nismo (smoother ???) or the C's (shorter but bit rougher????) don’t know I have never used either, both are about the same price.

how do you find out what brand of shifters you got in the car you bought if it already came with 1 and the seller do not have a clue what it is..

nismo ones are normally a blackish colour or flat metal, the C's shifters are chromed. but hard to tell really if its a rip off or not.

Ive got one that was a C's at one stage, then fiddled with. If you're in 1st then want 2nd its a 10mm movement. I love it!!!!!

Interesting.. in what way did you fiddle with it? (and I hope it wasn't in a priestly way :P)

      Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching

      Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.

      Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.
