Finally got around to modifying the gear selector knob today, lot sleeker looking than the factory lump,and no more worrying about leather deterioration.

Was a bit of faffing around on the lathe back and forth but got there in the end , now that prototype works I can do the next one without machine marks and anodize centre shaft to black as well. Might even get a unicorn logo engraved or lasered in at some point.

What set up is that looks good

T67 style turbo on a China 🇨🇳 manifold that I got with the car @Garage48 in Hornsby modded it to fit an external gate turbosmart 45 mm (he did a great job highly recommended) he made a complete exhaust from the turbo back 3-1/2 inch with a cat and 2 mufflers. Plazmaman fuel rail intercooler and upper plenum. Bosch 1050cc injectors and a Haltech Elite 2500 it controls the Engine and Transmission it’s auto. That’s about it I think

Not enough needs a bigger turbo and maybe 700cc more as well 260kw at all 4. It feels faster than that so I can only assume it looses a bit through the trans an AWD. The Haltech feels like an ECU. But the transmission is great. Shifts nice and hard. Also has torque reduction on shifts to help preserve the box/flexplate. I am getting a complete MV automatics rebuilt trans and flexplate.

I have just had a built box from MV fitted with a full manual valve body and it is fantastic.

What stage box are you gonna be looking at building with them because my old trans is still sitting there at MV waiting to be shipped back to me and it's already got a stage 2 shift kit, all new solenoid banks that are about 5000 ks old, with a new set of clutches for 1st-2nd gear and bands fitted about 1000klms before being pulled out and swapped for the manualised one I got them to build me, so if you were interested at all I'd be looking to sell it for a lot cheaper than it'd cost to get all that stuff done.

Shoot me a message if interested RBWGN

Because the ecu controls everything I don’t need the manual valve body. So it will be essentially the same box as yours but with a different valve body to also allow auto shifting and shifting from the steering wheel.

Yep so the box that's still at MV is exactly what you have just described ,it has a stage 2 MV automatic shift kit so still works with tiptronic buttons etc and would chirp tyres into 2nd gear

Yeh its a Maatouks Racing built motor running 526hp at the wheels on 98, I was almost ready to get a flex fuel tune & turn it up to about 700 - 800. I think I need to upgrade the box as 3rd gear is the weak link so probably as you mentioned a 1st to 4th helical cut dog box will be needed. It will save down time & money in the long run. It is my daily apart from road bikes & I don't think I could put up with an auto or justify a sequential.$22K

Hey bro what’s your mod list? How much did your engine build cost aswell?

Mean bro, imagine how 300 atw would feel 🥶

To go much more I’ll need a different turbo. So the cost increases as I’ll change the exhaust manifold as well and probably go drive by wire but it’s actually plenty to get a not trouble with as with the auto you are always on it so there is no down time between gears

Yes mine has a shift kit in it. There is not many people that could shift faster with a H pattern gearbox and keep the gearbox from exploding

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      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.

      By Duncan · Posted

      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.
