looking at getting a shift kit in my r34 gtt tiptronic auto. i know knox auto do a stage 2 for a good price.... but since i live in the northern suburbs i rang preston auto & diffs who wont touch it, they advised GZM automotive can do it.

Gave this mob a call and they advised they do a stage 3 shift kit(still has auto change function)....but they modify the currant valve body and cost $550.......my question is i know knox auto do the stage 2 shift kit for around the $450 mark.... do they modify the current valve body or do a change over??

thanks

I would consider getting MV auto to do your shift kit and send it to you. then get another shop to put it in if you dont know how.

I had an MV shift kit in my r33 and it shits all over the shift kit i got done locally here(brisbane) for my r34. I'm not saying that the place in melb will do a bad job. Just that Mike at MV knows what he is doing and you will know you're going to get the best quality (with a little more stuffing around)

Just an idea from my experience :P Give Mike a call. He's always more than helpful.

im considering calling mv having it sent down and having someone install there kit here... im just surprised knox advised they wont do it for the r34 anymore when its sounds like half the ppl on here went there! r33 no problem but the r34 auto is a problem apparently.....

anyone know another place who can do it in melb???

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
