Yes, to do with the number of clutch packs on the forward gears from memory, the GTt has extra due to more torque.

So thus making the non-turbo auto weaker than the turbo auto??

So is there a difference in the manual 5spd gear boxes between the turbo and non turbo R34's??

Not weaker, just makes it flare much easier. The 5spd in the GT is very similar to the RB20DET manual, the 5spd GTt box is much more awesome, moreso than the R33 GTSt box

You're right about the flaring ~_~

Even with modifed R34's the GTt one flares if it's not got a good bit of heat in it, that's why I like summer...not so long to get things up to temp (but luck out with power dropping a bit) I recently changed my gearbox oil over to some Valvoline stuff that is designed for Commodore Taxi slush-boxes and gained some extra friction on changes. Good as gold again.

Yes they are. 4 and 2 spot calipers vs 2 and 1 spot calipers. Also rotor sizes are different. R34 25GT Sedan is different again. An R34 GTV however has the GTT Brakes, though the GTV is also a GTT with an RB25DE NEO pretty much.

I haven't done a transmission service since I bought the car (Jan 07) only done 15,000kms in that time however and bought it with 105,000kms. Given that it never had the 100,000 km service done I hardly think the transmission has received a service in a long while in Japan... Any recommendations for where to take it for a service? I originally contacted Aspley Auto's about service and also shift kit, but they insist on driving it first to see how bad the flaring is, ie. whether a shift kit is going to fix or worsen the problem. They're in north side though which is rather inconvenient for me :S

pretty much identical, the differences are minimal we use the 34 boxes as they are generally lower km items..

    • If you mean the alarm immobiliser; theyre internal to the alarm itself which makes that difficult; I couldnt even see where he put it; its not in the same place as last time; but with all black wiring it might be very challenging to trace  I had someone turn the key for me as I know it only primes for a couple of seconds As my post above; I am getting no voltage to the pump at all; but I am testing continuity of the power line (SB) from the pump plug to the relay fine. As well as the negative from the pump plug to a 12V constant.    Yeah; he blammed the no start on a bad battery; said I needed to get a new battery and it'll start. Turns out the battery drained because the tail lights had been on for half the day during the install (the rubber cushion on the brake switch gave out while he was testing it as I have a picture of the car from that morning with the tail lights off..i've replaced that). The battery was turning over the engine just fine for a long time; but got low since lights were draining it so it was too low to test a start after he finished. I bought a new one on his advice...$250 wasted. My original battery charged up just fine and is healthy.    It was running perfectly fine when I messed up the old alarm (programmed out the remotes). He couldnt start it after removing the old alarm; my assumption is that when he unhooked it; he didnt bridge the circuit back when trying to start it. Its always been perfectly fine. The ECU swap and pump were 2 years ago. It's never missed a beat in that time. 
    • This is a big issue for me without the diff. I just have zero drive from the passenger side when drivers side has no traction. Bec's parents place has a crazy steep driveway with odd camber and I have never been able to get up. My bro-in-law's 130i with an (unknown brand) LSD gets up fine as does their dad's Hiace. My car stays at the bottom. We have other odd camber roads around here as we're elevated a bit and if it's raining I can get totally stuck around some hairpins. 
    • Yeah, I am super excited for this.
    • Was the car running before he touched the car?
