Hi all,

I will be taking ownership of an auto GT-T next week and the first thing I want to get done (after a full service and new fluids) is to get the gearbox overhauled. I'm looking for recommendations for good workshops in Brisbane/Gold Coast that can install a shift kit and give the box a thorough going over. I want to bring the final power up to around 220-250wkw and want to make sure that I have all my ducks in a row in regards to the drive train before I go chasing more power as the last thing I was is to blow up my gear box because it wasn't able to handle the power.

I'd love to get it done by the guys at MV Auto's in Adelaide but I'm not sure a trip there and back is really feasible so if anyone knows a good workshop in SE Qld that can do similar quality work that would be great.

Meh, remove transmission, courier down to MV (~$90), pay them, courier back, profit.

That certainly is an option I have considered, if I needed a complete overhaul then I would be very tempted.

apparently mv is the way to go, gets talked up a lot on here. have also heard of knox autos but not as much info on there work.

Well they do get mentioned quite a bit, I hope it isn't a case of forum viral marketing.

After I found this thread I did a little more searching on google and came up a company in Melbourne that also distribute shift kits, and they have a partner company in brisveagas...

Also found in the same search was another Brisbane automatic transmission workshop that seem to be performance oriented, don't know if they have experience with Skylines though...

When I'm closer to getting the Shift Kit I'll phone up MV and that other Melbourne mob and see if they are the same item, I'll also ring the local agent and get a quote for supply and installation, but right now I would probably get MV to send me the kit and I'll have a crack at the install.

Already found the tutorial...

      After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive

      Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.

      I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.

      No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
