I am making 312 awkw with my Deatschwerks 550 injectors on 98 petrol - I would say the limit on petrol is about 400kw.

Will a 455lp do the trick ?
What's the limit of the 550cc ?

I will stick up some pictures ASAP

so they will really take 300-350..lol, he overates his stuff, big time, and then theres the stagea weight...

cheers

You must know different ?

It's got the option to work, if not I'll be fitting the getrag box sooner than I thought maybe.

I had a built r33 auto in my last car, cost for a 700hp rated auto, for rwd only, in a lighter car was $3500, all KEAS internals, ported oil galleries, etc etc, then another $1500 for an 8" custom TCE 3000rpm pro street stall converter with transbrake setup. if your in vic , go and talk to Bayswater automatics, well priced and supply/fit and build with quality KEAS parts.

As for a rebuilt auto to handle 4wd.... that's a whole new ball game. if it were me aiming for those power figures, id convert to RWD and put in a transbraked C4 auto, with minimum 1500 stall converter.

To keep it auto you would be mad not to stuff an RE4ro3a in there as they can be built to handle 1200hp.

My box is an RE5ro5a and is just taking the 350awkw I am pushing through it (after many dollars have been thrown at it), although it would be putting out 400rwkw in manual rwd form.

well i can think of 4-5 ive had or got for mates and they've all blown, and then theres all the other people i know that

have blown, mike woudn't get any feedback...as they all convert to manual after that.....

they didn't last long..i got 2 days out of one...

the trans he rates at 300ish rwkw are just valve bodys..they generally blow at 240-250rwkw

(and thats in a skyline..not a heavy stagea, the only saving grace in a stagea is it doesn't wheelspin so your not on or off the throttle wheelspinning ... which electronic based boxes really don't like....)

or thats about there limit ..you can't expect them to hold 300...

his boxes are fine, his power ratings are up shit creek

2 options: sane street car Re4Ro3A built by kEAS with adapter(pretty sure pauls back in business now. and he quoted the

cheapest price for them ..)

or insane ...powerglide or turbo 400

thats your options...no B or 1A trans will hold...it will just be a complete waste of time/money and end in tears

pretty damn quick...

if my stagea was a project car, not a family car..id go 3.0 bottom end /neo head/10.1 comp ,E85..Pt6466 and a Re4Ro3A...lol

cheers

Interesting ... I've got the RE4R01B Tiptronic box in the GTT, still stock but trying to work out what to do with it.

You reckon it's no good to handle ~300ish rwkw even with a rebuild and a KEAS kit? Also, is Paul in Melb by any chance? Interested in having a chat.

Cheers, and sorry for the hijack..

around 300 you will probally get away with a big trans cooler, MV valve body and billet servo..thats what i have and its

held 290ish rwkw atm. i am not saying they are crap..just overated

But i woudn't try it with a GTX3540 on E85 on kill, lol , that would end in tears..

cheers

The GTX35 twin scroll is going to get its fully chance to produce its self, with the manual get-rag once it's fitted. Nistune I'm happy with the replys from all on the limits.

The triptronic valve body ect I just wanted to see the limits. And I will find the limits before the conversion to manual.

1st start today with the new forged engine and box. Running in is not much fun with no boost.

Pictures to follow soon as poss.

Thinking of fitting R34GTR rear lights, just going to have to have a play and see if I can work them in to look right.

Running in should be completed on the dyno with the initial tune and after an oil change you should be good to boost and drive normally (just watching for leaks and monitoring temps and oil pressure). Then another tune when you have about 10K on it.

Annually or 20,000+ km should be fine but I end up changing it abut every 6 months (10 - 15,000km). I get Nismo filters for $30.

Good oil, what is the turn around before you change the oil and filter ?

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
