If you do a google image search for R34 shifter, out of all the crap that are not pictures of R34 shifters, you will see 1 or 2 that look like the above photo.

And yes, R34s were tiptronic style, but that doesn't exclude the possibility that there were lesser engined cars with lesser trannys I suppose. Notwithstanding that, there is nothing to stop that shifter (in the photo above) being a tiptronic lever. It's been many years since I last looked at/put my hand on one but I vaguely recall it looking like that. Might be coloured by the google search I did though.

Google image is next to useless for this. Carsales FTW here, if one searches for r34 auto one finds many interior pics, with the shifter knobs not looking like that, the shaft is much thinner, in all but 2 i saw, one being the gt4 and another an n/a. Didn't seem to be consistent in those models tho

The console in your picture is almost certainly an R33, unless there was another car at the same time with an almost identical console.

Changing my search to R34 console yielded a few more useful pictures. http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&site=imghp&tbm=isch&source=hp&biw=1500&bih=916&q=r34+console&oq=r34+console&gs_l=img.3...1266.3055.0.3375.11.9.0.2.0.1.310.1073.4j3j1j1.9.0....0...1ac.1.24.img..5.6.420.d6VCQfhTTj4

Later R34s had those grey/silver painted inserts in the shift knobs. But the earlier ones seemed to be a bit more generic mid 90s Nissan bleurch.

Yeah r34 looks similar, but not same, as that one in first post. I want same lol..

I concur with you, if that's not an r33 interior then i'll eat a hamster, hence my OP about what r33 they came on, from shaft size looks like it should it should just slide right on...to my shaft...

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
