I asked them the same thing, he said... Its the same as the nissan patrol box. You can go manual but would have to ditch the attesa. All wheel drive or Rear only. Of course then you would have to run a 350z ecu or full computer and loose all other sensors and cpus like abs? not to mention grabbing the clutch pedal bits from???

This gearbox should be able to handle heaps of power now and snap into gear, just like a manual. Im going for a higher stall too due to the slightly higher lag, If its anything like my mates XR6 box they just did, I will be very happy.

Patrol transfer case does not have a "on demand" setting nor a centre diff, so cannot be used on tarmac in 4WD.

I think that is what they were getting at.

Patrol is part time 4WD, Stagea is AWD.. gotta love a bit of marketing...

Whilst we are on how strong transmissions are, there is an off the shelf kit to fit Patrol gearbox and transfer case into a Landcruiser.. Apparently the LC transfer case is made of glass...

Spoke to Kyp at ATP today. My turbo is finished (as you would know Scotty) and was being delivered to R E tonight for refit. Kyp told me what you are doing Scotty - sounds great! Will post some pics up of the original damage to mine over w/e. Looking forward to getting the car back...early to mid next week i hope. :P

Now for the exhaust......off to that thread!!

do want a manual!

surely the 34 getrag would be able to squeeze in there somewhere

I went down this road a while back.....while the Patrol box was stong the 34 Getrag is probably the best option because it can handle the HP and Torque once you start tweeking.....it was also built as a sports box and we all know it will handle the MN35 AWD system. The only real problem I stumbled over was the bell housing.....everything else was pretty straight forward. The let down was cost.....if I could find a good one with the transfer case for $1,500 I would have gone for it.

Secret mens buisness apparently, no cameras allowed. :) I did ask for you.

I was going to get some pics of the car too, but theres not much of it left.

Heres a pic of the coilovers tho.

I would love to hear how you get on with these, they seem quite the bargain, if they're not too harsh.

The BC coilovers ceartainly look the part, I will fit them next week hopefully. Lots to do, I have to rebuild turbo, refit turbo, install trans cooler, ive got some heat shielding sheets to install on the inner guard and firewall around the turbo. Then fit the coilovers and get a wheel alignment. All this while the gearbox is getting rebuilt.

I need to fit an engine oil cooler also if I can find a cheapie. Speaking of which.. has anybody fitted one before?

I noticed the hose coming out of the filter block, can this be tapped into for the oil cooler? I hope so, it looks simple.

Scotty, that hose is from the radiator. The circular bit that your filter screws into is the OE oil cooler and, obviously, has coolant pumped through it.

Ok thanks mate. So I will still need a full oil cooler kit.

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻

      Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”

      Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2

      Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
