Hi guys I am planning to make my Auto S2 Stagea mody to power between 230rwkw to 250rwkw, and I know what parts to get and I already start doing this now but until some of my friends who own WRX and 180sx they said my car will need to change the drive line or gearbox thing otherwise my car won't make pass 165rwkw. They said my 4wd system is same as wxr not strong , is this trust?? If I want to mody my S2 to 230rwkw then I will have to change the all the drive line , like gearbox or diff??

4WD will be fine, it's basically the same as the GTR 4WD system which can handle alot more than 250awkw. The auto box will handle it, I'm running around that power with a stock auto, my only issue is flaring in gearchanges under full load. I'm in the process of getting a shift kit to sort that out.

no, the AWD system is actually based on the GT4 which was NA - the only GTR based systems were in the Autech. Its kinda interesting really, the stagea was the ONLY RB25DET powered AWD system Nissan ever made...

Yes the gearbox will handle it, as will the diffs, transfer case etc, but to make sure I would recommend a thermo controlled trans oil cooler and a shift kit as a sensible precaution

While looking for a shift kit for my re5, I was told the re4 was good for over 1000 hp once built.

+1 A shift kit will help stop the wearing clutch slip that occurs when powering up the engine.

Yes, and the re4 is a much stronger box. M35 uses the electronic throttle to limit the torque so they could lighten the box a bit.

So mine S2 stagea autobox can hold 1000hp? then should be enought to handle 250rwkw as well.

You will definately need a higher rated torque converter at that power. Mine sucked ass with the stock converter...

When mine was stock, my 60ft was 1.9. With the 30R+other mods and stock converter, it was 2.2.

Haven't run it yet with the higher stall, but feels ALOT better with it!

Only once built. I guess any more than around 200kw you would need the shift kit fitted at a minimum.

Pretty sure that MV Automatics have shift kits for your car

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • 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?
