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.

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
