Hey there guys,

I'm writing this in behalf of my brothers car. (It's a S1 93' Auto 33 gtst)

Only mods to it are full exhaust, and FMIC. It's running stock boost atm.

When he's driving the car gently, the car seems to say 2nd gear, unless he really puts his foot down, which will eventually trigger the car to get into third gear (and subsequently fourth).

I really have no idea what it could be.

If the accelerator is 'mashed' from the get go, the car goes through all the gears no problem. The issue is the car is a daily, and in it's current condition it's rather undriveable.

Just want to know what it could be, and more-so a rough estimate of how much it 'should' cost to get fixed =P (He's been ripped in the past bigtime.)

Thanks guys

- Dervish

See if A/T Diagnostics throws any codes first?

Try the obvious shit like checking switches, tranny ECU, doing a reset etc

If its only between second and third, and every other gear shift is OK, count on it being a problem at the ECU.

Make sure the "power/comfort" switch is set to normal or comfort if R33s have one?

Price range to fix could vary from Free -> sweet f**k all -> new gearbox.

    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT?

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.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
