Just wanting more information on these Unicorns of the japanese made cars,

Off memory I thought there were a hand full of R33 gtr's made in Automatic from the factory, anyone got one or know anything about them?

Cheers

There were a handful of R33 GT-R sedans made by Autech, but they were all manual, as were all GT-Rs :D

i must be thinking of the sedan gtr's..... that rings a bell now

I am almost certain Autech also did automatic r33 GTRs with no turbo ie rb26de.

BTW is this just out of interest, or do you want one? You could not get compliance if you found one to import, but if you really wanted to build one your probably could with a stagea box (just need to get the auto computer control sorted)

haha I'm really curious as to WHY they took an RB26 and took both turbos off for an end result which while sounding good, is only marginally better in performance than the RB25DE! Does anyone know if it uses high comp pistons or if its just really a TT version with them removed?

    • Did you pay with a credit card? I'd be putting a charge back through then finding a new sparky to sort it out. 
    • 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?
