Give me a PM if you are selling the stuffed gearbox, I need a new case for my spare, it has a hole in it...

Will do, i was offered 20k cash for my car yesterday.. i may go ahead with that. I can get a work car now and the V will only be a weekender, saves me having to buy a new box and shit. The guys loaded with money anyway.

If you get it all installed, I would be interested to know what you think of the JWT Clutch/Fly and how it compares to the factory Clutch/Fly. I am getting sick of the feel of the factory clutch and the narrow engagement window - I have been thinking about the clutch pedal mods, but haven't got around to doing anything yet.

The downside is I have heard if you replace the factory DMF with a standard single piece flywheel, you get a lot of chatter from the gearbox which can be annoying at low RPM..

Well apparently the car has an excedy twin place clutch in it now, i've never driven a manual v35 with the stock clutch so i can't be too sure if it's legit..

I saw a factory CD009 at UPS last week. It was put aside because 1/2 the box was covered in fluid - suspect cracked case in transit - LOL!

Oh shit.. don't tell me that haha

  • 3 weeks later...

Update:

I have been in touch with Z1 performance in states over the last few weeks ttrying to find a better deal for what i want.

Here it is so far:

CD009 Transmission

Chromoly Pivot Ball

Stainless Steel Clutch Line

Nismo Pilot Bushing

JWT Clutch & Flywheel (tossing up between Nismo or UR flywheel as they supposedly have less chatter under 2000rpm)

Redline 75w90 gl4 gearbox oil + same stuff with gl5 for diff oil.

Z1 performance originally quoted me $1,699 + $775 shipping for just the gearbox alone.

I approached Coz at ConceptZperformance a while back and received no response, got an email back this morning from Coz saying "shit that's expensive i'll do it for $2194 delivered" definitely happy with that.

Definitely pays off searching around for a good deal as i'm very happy with saving $300.

Costing me a total of $3068 total delivered in 3-5 days which is great.

Now i just need the money!

Yeah cool cool he said he does alot of high value shipments to Australia and no one has complained to him yet about any GST or taxes lol so that'd be good if he does that.

Couldn't have picked a shitter time of the year to spend $3000.. around xmas and my mrs is expecting a shit load of presents as they do..

If they specifiy a figure under $1000 on the customs delcaration, you will probably be fine.. but just be aware, Australian Customs has been cracking down on this sort of thing recently.. hopefully they won't estimate the actual cost of the items to be above $1,000 and therefore won't invesitgate.

just wrap up little bunches of coal... your near a mine. it should be easy for you to get.

From what I know, if the declaration to customs states that the item is under $1k, customs duty won't apply.

However, if you do get it shipping insurance and it doesn't arrive, they will only cover what's on the declaration. Is $750.

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
