i have just installed my nismo shifter into my R33 Series 2 Skyline.. Im not exactly sure if all the original shifter parts are there. i have started by putting the wavy circular bit of metal in the shaft first, then applied the yellow plastic bit for the shifter to slot into. the shifter had come with a circular bit of plastic alread on the shifter that slotted into the yellow bit from before... i then put the two metal circular thingos into the shaft to hold the shifter down.. the end result is that the shifter can move upwards about 3mm or so and go back down.. is there supposed to be slight movement or is it supposed to be pretty tight????????? Thanks guys!

Pics will help :)

But I think your talking about there being movement up and down (a small gap between the top shifter plastic retainer and circlip). If so I know mine (Custom Solid short shifter I made from the standard shifter) has a small amount of play, I dont think its anything to worry about if it still shifts gear fine and the movement isnt excessive

There should be a metal spacer that sits in the bottom before everything else goes in...if you've bought this second hand, chances ard it's sitting in the box it came out of...I know because I bought a 2nd hand C's shifter and it didn't come with the spacer so I had the same up and down movement you've got...

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
