Hi guys, I have a r33 gtr, I'm looking to convert to autottrans, in order to get good times on drag strip.

What options do I have for a box that can withstand 1000hp.

Opinions and ideas would be great

Wasn't there a bunch that did adapted awd powerglides?

Thought I remember an advert somewhere. That's all I know.

C&V performance in NSW would be the people from memory. Adapter for a powerglide or at the least know who did it.

They built the RH8 32R that had over 1000rwkw. Safe to say it will hold 1000hp :-)

I'll try shooting off an email to c&v. its amazing that the GTR has been around for so long and there still isnt a set procedure as to high power with an auto.

thanks for your help #R31Nismoid

scratch that last question, that is an amazing launch, we are getting somewhere now.

does anyone no of any places i can get the TH400, and or a shop to modify to suit?

Why dont you have a chat to the owner of the car?

I don't know him, but after seeing the car on the strip, I think he is friendly with maatouks. Contact them see if they can point you the right direction.

thankyou very much

I DID speak to maatouks, i beleive he said they were using ppg in the black r32.

theyve blown that box now, and have a factory one in the meantime till the next option arrises

Nah, ask about the diehard GTR.

I sold him my entire setup. When I built the box 1200hp was the aim so I built a 1500hp glide to suit but plans changed after I ordered a big precision turbo that we felt might push the rating of the box so iv decided to get another done with a billet case and some other small tweaks.

Mv automatics did the orginal 4wd conversion and built a glide to suit which turned into a nightmare. There one of very few places that do the conversion and after dealing with them I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
