Guys,

Have called a few places (who had very high quotes for bloody 15 year old parts without warranty) but I'm sure you guys could point me in the right direction a lot faster.

After R33 parts to complete a manual conversion (on an R34).

Need a manual gearbox, tailshaft (front part), manual spigot bush, clutch master cylinder, clutch slave cylinder,

-clutch MC to Slave Cyc lines, pedals, flywheel. Will buy a new clutch kit seperatly.

Have posted in the WTB section here but very few replies and I really want to do this over my Chrissy holidays as I have the next 3 weeks off so figure if I can find a wreckers with it in stock I'll be right.

Cheers for any help.

Yeah have spoken to him - agree its a good price (for what you get) but way more than I want to spend (don't need a $2K clutch or a lightened flywheel). If I can keep the price down (to under $2K with new clutch) I am doing this conversion if not then it doesn't make financial sense to do and I will sell and start over.

If i was to do this conversion i'd buy the spigot new from nissan/justjap($10 at most), clutch master and slave from peps in artarmon(new non-gen)(roughly $150 at most), braided clutch to slave line from pirtek/enzed or a rubber one from a vl(not sure on price there...$10 > $150 at most), aftermarket lightened flywheel.

As for the box...i saw one somewhere on here in brissy for $600. Hunt for second hand one from private sale. Tailshaft half from sss automotive, jpc lansvale, justjap or gms revesby.

Does the pedal box on an r34 need all 3 pedals or does the clutch pedal bolt in separately? May be able to use a 31/32/33 pedal box or just the extra pedal and cut auto brake pedal in half with hacksaw.

Should be under 2k easy doing it that way.

Hope some of that helps. Good luck!

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
