Im just looking for some advice on upgrading auto trans. I'm driving a stock R33 SII (apart from the nifty nismo front ) I really dont know much about available options for automatics. What I would really like to fit would be a automatic trans with a sequential shift like the ones out on the new fords. I could always convert the car to manual but I feel that would be too much of a job.

yeah, don't belive anyone that says that auto's are shit, because they aren't.

DO what RNS11Z says, and then bomb your motor, and you'll have a nice little car that will change quick, and be good in straight line drags

Actually i believe its the other way round kamikazee. Your going to need a shift kit for the Auto. If you want 200+rwkw get it rebuilt with stronger internals, a new stall converter and bigger trans cooler

Do u know any where in brissy that does auto gtst gearbox mods?

actually the R34 tiptronic is the kind of thing im looking for. I dont want to buy a 34 because... err.. i just bought this 33 but yeah is it possible to get something like the R34 trans installed in a R33?? Otherwise im not complaining about autos at all. If I wanted a manual right up i would have bought one. (I do long drives as well as driving through the CBD and clutches frustrate me in traffic) It would be nice to have just a little more control over the gears when needed. I'm looking into shifts kits, is JATCO the thing to look for??

i cant find contact information for JATCO in japan but they have on their website a 5-SPEED Auto Transmission for Skylines. Unfortunately thats about all the info they give out. theres no links to a technical specs and not even an email address to ask them. who here knows about these transmissions and can they go in a R33 GTS?

your local auto workshop should be able to do some mods to the auto box aka stage 2 shift kit, which i believe helps in quicker changing of the auto box. as others have said, upgrade ecu, cooler, boost controller, air filter and you'll find the auto should be still fine

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok so i will NEED to have this sensor anyway even with Nistune (or standalone ECU) https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-boost-pressure-sensor-evap-control-system-fits-nissan-r34-skyline-c34-nm35-stagea-pnt30-x-trail-rb25det-vq25det-sr20vet?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqfxX48bW9bEwH62orcNhtBfp7ekAL0C9Ca89ySFGUiBzXfXeze Is this the correct one? And this is only thing i need? No other "things" connected to the sensor or something? I do have the wiring.
