may i ask why you want one? and have you driven a car with one before? the reason i ask is because i had always thought of getting one until a mate got one. i didn't like it at all. made the gears feel more notchy. i didn't like it at all.

I put GFB short shifters in both of my previous WRXs, I just like the shorter throw even though it may take a little more effort, the GFB ones are also adjustable in the amount of throw they have , I prefer just off the shortest which is just off the harder to shift end.

I have'nt driven or had one in a Skyline but I imagine the same scenario will be in play hence my question about type of shifter to see if some may be friendlier than others.

:)

RHD do some, not a bad price either

I've got a C's short shifter in mine and a solid gearbox mount. I don't like a sloppy box. It's nice and toight now :)

The only C's ones I coud find were for R33s and RRPing at around $760.00+frieght which is more than I'm prepared to pay by a long chalk, do you know if the R33 C's ones are a fit for the R34GTT box ?

If they are and a second handy pops up I might have a go at it.

:D

Well driftshop.com.au sell a C's 'Design' short shifter, reducing throw by 30% and also a B&M short shifter, but neither say they are compatible with R34's

I wouldn't mind getting one myself, but want to get something that is more than a 10% throw like the nismo one, im not sure if the one on RHD is the 10% or a 25% decrease in shift though.

J34, mind telling us where you got yours? or did it come with the car?

I'm presuming that the one that reduces the throw 10% is just a shortened version of stock and the 25% or so reducer is the kit version ????????????

I EM'd Driftshop yesterday and am waiting a reply.

I wonder if there would be enough interest to get a small group buy up and running ?

:D

i know this is going to start a shit storm, but you can make a short shifter simply by cutting down the stock shifter. it's simple physics.

by the way, anyone who doesn't agree, feel free to argue this because i have diagrams and pictures proving i am right, LOL. had this arguement many many times before.

Absolutely correct hence my previous post and the 10% question, a genuine short shift requires the movement of the pivot point of the gear lever itself which I presume the scandalously priced "kits" do here is one example of a trader who should be rooted with thier short shiter just on the price alone as an example.

    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt
