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

they were out of business when i had mine put in (more than 2 yrs ago???)

go C's - love it

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)

      Lets say I wanted to buy this, specifically for this purpose. How do I actually perform the function. Can I still buy a Consult-1? Am I about to be burned by the fact my car is a 2000 model Series 2 R34 and thus will be some stupid other system? Do I just need this -> https://obd2australia.com.au/product/nissan-consult-14-pin-to-usb-ddl-diagnostic-interface-with-ftdi-ft232r-chip/ And with what software?

      That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc.

      Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?

      Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...

      R34 auto to manual conversion help

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
