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

    • Oops. Sorry mate. It is both excellent to hear and also surprising though. The amount of work required to (effectively manually, not on a production line) build a core vs your low retail price point is why I presumed that you were buying cores. But let's also be clear about what is meant by "build". At your price point I can't see you making cores from billet on a mill, even if CNC, or doing all the machine work on a rough casting. Surely the lumps of metal are sourced more or less ready to go from an Asian supplier, right? Maybe the same with shafts. I mean, you could turn shafts up yourself, but it's pretty slow going for items that are all essentially bulk order producable. I was always perfectly willing to believe that you assemble your wheels to shafts, fit up bearings and do all the balancing. I actually expected that you would have been doing all that even if the core did arrive from a supplier with most of that pre-assembled. Nevertheless, please accept my apology.
    • I hate to interrupt, there are enough internet rumors. I do build every single CORE in house that leaves my workshop including the one that you are using, as well as engineering work done on your turbo housings.  Reason been is I got shafted badly by a turbo joint 18 years ago when the business first started. I since trusted no one when comes to selling anything under my name, or I just don't touch them at all.
    • @MBS206 yeah it's a short run from battery in boot to pump
    • On a 20amp run, on "12V", if you're getting power for the pump direct from battery in the boot, you should be good on 12AWG. If the wiring is from up front, you want to get to a 10awg.
