haha, yeah confirmed, it's separate, you can change the knob out without needing to mess with the lifter

Thanks for answering my Q. Now for the next Q...

The collar slides up and down the gear stick - patently obvious > up to the base of the knob (to engage "R") and down the stick again - nah I'm not stupid.

Now, the wires that run up to the knob (for illumination) will be exposed above the collar will they not? I mean, the wires would be a bit of a pain?

Hmm not 100% sure on that one. I'll email the guys one more time just in case the last email didn't go through properly.

If not perhaps I will just buy a M12 one and try and make it fit some how, if not I can just fit it to the Mazda 3 since that runs a M12.

the skyline shifter looks like it comes up a lot higher than these ones.

are you looking to fit this same type? with the raised outer eadge on the boot. coz i think that's what makes it look so good. but can it work?

THEY CAN DO THEM IN 10MM!!!

Just got an email from them last night!

So looks like this will go ahead. Will post up more details as soon as I get them.

:cheers:

I get what you mean. Will have to sort something out with the boot. I like that sunken look aswell.

Righteo so I got word back regarding pricing.

For 5 of them custom made in 10mm delivered to every one would be $110 delivered each.

What you think? Is there a few people keen for that price? If so I will chuck up the group buy.

Phil, not sure if you have mentioned this or not, but do they only make it in leather?

I want aluminium xD

Does your car ever sit in the sun? I got a GReddy gear knob.. Not pretty.. Needs a sock or cloth to cover it

Oh it sits in the sun alright lol. I've got a black Nismo aluminium gear knob.

Yes it gets hot in the summer, but my hand is used to it, it doesn't affect me anymore lol.

I mean... It's only really hot for less than 1 minute, once you start driving, it cools down a lot really quickly.

But then again, your in QLD, not sure how hot your knob gets up there :P

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
