Just started looking at a r34 auto to get built from mz autos. Should hold the power abut better than the vl box in there now.

Re tune booked in from status for this Friday. Should be interesting when done.

4N71B trans went bang ? Try to get a nissan Y31/32/33 trans if you can, the Re series of autos out of these cars are near on bullet proof (when kitted out)and mv trans in s.a have done a few

Bell housing from rb bolts onto vg easily

Good that you are keeping an older nissan alive

There doesnt seem to be much appreciation for these classics

Thanks I got a trans from a r34 going to mv today for a full build. Should hold upto the abuse well I think. At least I can get a better converter this time. Lol

Had a slight issue with the new trans. The pump bush seized onto the converter snout in 5 mins of driving. Box out and thanks to mv autos it's fixed and due back to me this week for install and fun over the weekend

Thanks to mv autos box is back in and works well. Loves to skid now. I have found boost control issues now. Boost climbs well over 25psi with wheel spin but steady with none. I guess it's time to go external gate now

How's the auto holding up. How much better is it then the auto you had.

What gears have you got in the diff. Does it driver better then before (cruising / power runs)

I like this box a lot more than the other one. It shifts a lot faster. Second to third is instant before had a delay.

I have 3.7 diff gears. I would like 4.11's but they are very hard to find.

The box is very smooth when shifting on the converter and very hard when under power. The lockup clutch keeps the temps down on the highway too

Best money spent on the car so far

    • Definitely do-able haha. I will give it a try if the fuel pump hanger does not solve the issue. Just need to find some quiet time in the area, Malta is like a big city and I live right next to the main hospital so it is very busy during the day. I'll be installing it in about 2 weeks, found a garage that is pretty knowledgeable and has the necessary tools. This garage has worked on multiple builds, even for competitions. They even asked me to stay with, so I should be fine.
    • Just to add, I found the r32 gtr ecu the most forgiving, the r33 one would get the shits. 
    • For what it’s worth I drove my gtr for over a decade with gt-ss as a true daily after I pulled off the -5s, I had it engineered and went with stock ecu etc.  never skipped a beat.    I would only worry if you can’t get good fuel all the time in a tropical paradise
    • I bought an engine from a friend of a friend many years ago, it was sold to me as a RB25det Neo.    recently I started pulling it apart and noticed that the intake manifold was pretty different from others that I had seen on RB engines so did a bit of research and found that it was a non turbo manifold. So I’m sceptical now that it is a NEO DET and just thinking it’s a NEO DE (it does have a turbo strapped to it currently).    can you identify the engine model from the numbers on the block?
    • Yeah you can. Cable tie the gauge to a windscreen wiper, or run it into the car and hold it with one hand, or have the neighbour's kid run alongside and tell you what it says.
