I have my local speed shop pricing one for me.

I'll get a price for x lots if people are interested. I have used a B&M shifter that claimed 25% on a WRX and it was amazing. Can't wait till I get mine.

Adrian - B&M claim they work on all skyline - but the part # is the same for all models - ie R32, R33, R34 - GTS-t, GTR -

and I was of the understanding that shifters were different between skyline models.

Hence - my confusion if they will work on a GTS-t or not

Ohhh I wonder if that will let me shift quicker! Looks pretty good as they replace the base plate as well with a machined part... and the shifters are pretty much interchangable between skyline boxes.

No mo' granny shifts~!

mate a granny shift is like shifting at 3 grand (ie. not redlining it).

you obviously have a different idea about what granny shifting is to the rest of the world, mate.

Chris, you got nothing... I'm afraid you're a lost cause till you can do a burnout... :rant::):rant:

Skylines cant do burnouts, the whole world knows this, to do a proper burnout you need a beige Corona, :)

Has anyone tried a short shifter, B & M or other, only to find that the condition of the gearbox means that shifting is actually harder, i drove a 200SX that shifted like a pig with a Cs shifter, apparently the health of the box needs to be pretty good to runa shorter shifter...any truth?

yep - shorter shift is suppost to put increased load on the gearbox and syncros (spelling ?)

But this is a generic statement - it really depends on how well (or bad !) you treat the gearbox, the condition of the box, regular servicing and (as 2rismo said) how good a lube you wanna use (mechanically speaking !!)

my gearbox whines visciously and drops a lot of oil.... does that mean i gotta keep using the stock shifter.

And also anyone using an rb20 box in a vl get a different shifter, i still have the rb20 one and i had to turn it around as the shifter hits the handbrake in 2nd gear. Turned around it has a HUGE throw in to 1,3,5 and a minute one in to 2,4,R ... dodgy !

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
