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.

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.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
