Cheers for all that guys, really want to do this conversion as all the work will be done by me and my boss (im a mechanic btw). now with the transmission, dont worry about the amount of work, but is it possible to get it to fit in there, or simply impossible.

Your a mechanic , be easy for you to work out whats possible and what isnt

Stiff?

THIS

IS

SAU:WA

Technical questions really should be put in the other sections mate, just go back and read the last few pages or search in WA here, you'll find there isn't alot of help here...but Disturbed does raise a point...if you're a mechanic you should have this sussed out before hand...especially a project like this. You don't want to go and buy a halfcut and body panels, only to get stuck in and find half of it may not work. Do some research before hand.

Gearbox mounting will (without a doubt) have been covered somewhere on this forum before.

ill be honest, i thought everything should swap right over when i went out and bought the wreck coz there both 34's. obviously i was wrong. This project hasnt even started yet. im actually still planning on how im going to do things, hence why i ask if anyone knows if theres a chance to fit it. its ok, your right this isnt the technical section neways. i should have started it there. no worries guys, cheers for the helps.

Hey Guys,

Before i start away, i want to mention, i used the search function and couldn't find all the help i needed.

ok, so i got an R34 GT, and am going to do a complete 34 GTR conversion to it which includes the following, Engine, Gearbox, Drivetrain, 4wd system, Brembos, Suspension, Interior and the whole lot. Now i was going to say, it is going to be daily, so i would like it to be liscenced with the swap over, anyone know if much work will be needed done? i read on engine swaps there is some form, but im assuming for this there should be more than that. if anyone knows any info would be awesomeness. oh and just so u know, i have all the parts already as i just bought a 34 GTR wreck.

cheers for any input guys

I would sell your GTT and GTR wreck and buy a REAL GTR...Would work out cheaper and less hassle. What are you trying to accomplish with the conversion? Are you going to stick GTR badges on it? Dont assumke you can drive around thinking its going to be the real deal

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
