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.

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.

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
