most people haven't been in a car with a built auto, once you have you won't mind spending the money once on a good auto. only issue with an auto is you can't kick the clutch but i like my car with th

Tell me more about these manualised autos

No electronic control required. You manually select each gear and enjoy the fact you don't need to push the clutch pedal and the best bit is you just keep grabbing gears in a skid

What shifters work? Do you need a new valvebody? What is exactly involved? How does the stall converter react to it? After a manualised auto you can use any stand alone? etc etc... Obviously i don't know anything about autos besides the fact that mine is in good nick. I'm guessing the cost is around the 1-2g mark?

Tried searching quite a lot and i couldn't find anything, and i don't want to waste MV's time by calling them.

A few posts up I have a photo of my b&m shifter under the factory covers. I suggest you give mv a call that way you get all your questions answered they are good guys to talk to

Are these the options or tuning the auto skyline r33 :

Toshi's tune

Nistune..need more info about this

eManage blue/ultimate

Safc and sitc

Power Fc

Are these users able to retain the shift logic? Toshi is all out of auto ecu's and wont be importing anymore so I dont know if he is an option. He mentioned not being able to do over 200rwkw or so on the eManage.

Want to see in excess of 230rwkw (have usual mods - intake/exhaust , injectors , fuel pump - high flow turbo to 18psi , trans cooler , mv valve body upgrade)

What ecu can I use that will retain daily drivability but get me to 230rwkw?

I also realised after I wrote Nistune a lot, that the person asking has a 33 Auto, to which I have NFI if Nistuning will work as they typically change the ECU to a Z32 or RB20 ECU to boot.

Unsure if that even applies to Autos, actually.

Soo funny I forgot to laugh ;)

Stu cornall tuning services in qld is making them. Just sent him a msg on Facebook.

If he doesn't reply, does someone else want to call him? I've been watching him from afar and following him from work and home. I KNOW he has been ignoring me!

FYI This is what the director of Nistune had to say after I emailed him regarding using nistune on an r33 automatic:

The only option I’ve found so far is to use the R32 ECU, TCU and an aftermarket VCT controller. This has been done by Steve at Advanced Jap Auto in Vic with indicated the setup works since the r33 TCU cannot be used with R32/Z32 ECUs

You would also need to upgrade the MAF to Z32 over 220rwkw

We cannot nistune the r33 ECU at this point. Another person is working on a solution but no news since Dec

If you wished to do this way then you need to source the R32 ecu and tcu plus Summit racing, buddy club etc RPM trigger switch for VCT and Nistune Type 2 board loaded with rb25 maps

      Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW )

      But seriously, can we ask for the results of the "tip a bottle of metho into a nearly empty tank" experiment?

      Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.

      Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
