Quick shift -

Shifting that is lightning fast, but also secure. By changing the structure and materials of the installation point, and by a change in the fulcrum position (lever ratio), a dramatically more solid feeling shift change was achieved, with a 25% shorter stroke and much faster shifting.

Short shift -

The Nismo Solid Shifter has been developed to provide a 7.5mm lower shift knob height and increase the hardness of the rubber shift lever. This provides 10% shorter shift distance and less deflection for a more solid confident shift.

The one i got apparently doesn't. The angle of the shifter is the exactly the same when i compared them. It it just slightly shorter and is solid.
I did lots of reading up on the nismo one to make sure it wouldn't be detrimental to the synchronicity of my gearboxes internal components.
It was the reason I got it over one of the aftermarket short shifter kits. It also came with a new shifter bushing already on it which i liked because i hate changing those things.

To do list:

Put dash in

Paint shiz

Clean shiz

Tidy engine bay (wire tuck, and possibly some paint.)

Install all new braided hoses...

New to buy list:

Nismo rear view cover (new) $220

Nismo leather seat cover set (new) $1500

OEM gearstick/Handbrake boots (new) $100 ish

Possibly Nismo Strut brace....(still contemplating a mines strut brace $1500)

Nismo floor mats (new) $230

4 more bee*R stickers for my wheels $20

and still going...

=$3570.... Start saving. Sigh

How you can justify 1500 on seat covers I'll never know haha :unsure:

they are oh so much more!

Honeslty i don't care about cost on the GTR. I want to get it to the best it can be. So i chip away bit by bit. After all it's only money.

Also that isn't including the bran new interior bits i plan to buy at like $140-$200 each. Center console surround has screw holes in it from previous owner mounting a gauge there. $170 for new one without the holes. =\

Yep. Nengun have slower sending times and more in freight. But a good site none the less.

I don't know why Justjap make it so difficult.

Also check:

RhdJapan.com for new OEM products.

I just bought new lmgt4 centre caps and replacement nismo stickers for them from RHD japan.
Awesome site to navigate. Way too much stuff I want on there though.

Also got new hoses for all my IC pipes, fitted up the turn flow, ready to start it tomorrow and move it into my old mans garage when he goes away for the weekend on a club run so i'll change my turbo.

haaaawt.

so much want.

So, I got the bad news today that my ViPec needs to be sent to WA to be repaired and could take 4 plus weeks.

This puts me in a sticky situation as I need a car for work... and tmw.

Sooo, I jumped on the interwebs and sourced a shittah to run around in. Took about 2.5mins to

find this beauty... a 1996 Beep Beep Barina in Goulburn for..... $600 with 5 weeks rego.

Was totaly winning and drove home (the guy who owned it works in Canberra so gave me a lift from QBN to Goulburn)

Until..... I hit a goddam Kangaroo.

Oh the humanity.. Beep Beep Booooop.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
