Im geting an auto 4wd box built out of a nissan cima.

Just want to be different so we will soon see how it goes

I know where you can get a 4WD T400 if you smash it as i looked at going auto but decided to stay with the manual.

In all seriousness, have you actually seen a finished TH400 4wd?

The reason I ask is I had a guy tell me he had one in his GTR and when I asked for pix he replied to say he'd made a mistke and his car was 2wd with a TH400.

I've "heard" of these 4wd TH400s but no-one seems to actually be able to produce evidence.

Ill take some shots this weekend...ok

australians build some of the best gearboxes in the world...why is it so hard to believe they cannot do it with transmissions Robbie?

These guys engineer some of australia's best street and show cars so i don't at all question what they have achieved. Mick Stanic from Subzero also has done a T400 GTR box although ive not seen that one 1st hand.

Man, your danglies must be really playing up, lol. Relax and read my question in a positive way as a genuine question, not that I'm on your case or calling you out, geeeeeez.

I didn't say I didn't believe you, I mearly wanted proper confirmation that a TH400 4wd had been done because the only ones I'd heard of turned out not be real.

Any pix or contact info of the guys who've done the trans would be greatly apreciated.

ive seen the box mick stanic had but it was a 4wd powerglide not a th400 just looked like a glide with an oem gtr transfer case adapted,it seemed to work fine in his street gtr.it might actually be the same gearbox that went into marios 8 sec gtr in dubai.

Hahahahaha until I read this I didn't realise there was a cunning stunt performed, awesome :D

BTW, it occured to me that this power figure is the highest I've read about on a Dyno Dynamics running 98 without nitrous.... gotta be up there?

ant ND4SPD in WA ran 660odd rwkw no nos, i cant remember if it was bp98 or some kind of monkey juice

never the less it was on low boost, only 21-24psi or something stupidly low like that

edit: apparently was on jungle juice, ill ask him if he ran it on bp98 ever

^^^ i wonder how often he can enjoy that power.... other than powercruise.

A turbo that can ingest humans would not be fun to drive around on the street

I get annoyed with the lag mine has.... and its running stock twins

A 500 or 600ps combo for a street/occaisional track warrior would be much more enjoyable to drive around town

But at the end of the day i guess he built it just to crank massive HP figures

his car makes full boost by 5000rpm and pulls hard till 9000.

how can that not be fun?

my mate runs a gt3540 rb30 on his r34 and makes full boost by 3900 and pulls to 7000.

he makes around 350rwkw. and has yet to even lose to anything on the street. and trsut me 20psi by 4000rpm is f*kn responsive on a big turbo like that.

we both know there are alot more serious cars out there.

but with a AWD system and full boot by 5000rpm. and making over 5000kw.

thats more fun then dreamworld

your profile says u own a r33 gtst....what stock twins are you talking about?

stock GTRs make full boost by 2500rpm but make like 250awk.......which is f*k all and isnt all that fast.

i can tell youve never been in anything other then your standard 2.5 or 2.6 skyline. this guys running a rb30 which will cause less lag and even more power. i dont think you know what lag is boy

Cheers for that, I thought it was 2 speed.

Hopefully dirt can get some pix and info on the th400 he knows of.

I drove my first 3L skyline a couple of weeks ago (with a pretty hefty turbo attached) and I have to admit, it was something else! Pulls like a freight train! Definately on the books for me :D

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
