I'm tempted to swap a race auto into my R34 GTT, so i'm putting my whole manual conversion up as an expression of interest.

The gearbox is a R33 GTST 5 Speed, with a strengthened OS Giken gearset and all of the upgraded parts to go along with it (syncros, clips etc). The box is close ratio 1 - 3. Not sure if 5th has been changed. I bought the box from a reputable workshop in Melbourne who removed it from a customer's R32 GTST after only doing a few KM of road driving. I then put it in my car where it has done about 2500km of street driving and a few runs at the drags. Car has been running about 500kw whilst in my hands. Box has only ever run Redline MT50 oil. I will be perfectly honest and say that while the box is faultless in terms of gear shifts and smoothness, it does sound like it needs the input shaft bearing checked as it whines. This has never affected the box as I mentioned, but it would be nice to fix it up while the box is out.

I also have the clutch kit to go with as well. This includes an XTreme lightweight chromoly flywheel with a Jim Berry full monty clutch (r33 push setup). The clutch is less than 1500km old and hasnt had any hard launches at all as i fried the last clutch at the drags so ive babied this one. For anyone that hasnt driven a Jim Berry clutch, they are the lightest easiest to drive clutches by far. All the hardware was replaced with the new clutch, so new ARP flywheel bolts and Nissan pressure plate bolts.

There's also the rest of the conversion parts to go with. Clutch master cylinder with braided line and pedal. Clutch slave. Brake pedal. Center console and shifter. Front half of tailshaft. All to suit R34 GTT.

Everything listed above as complete package - $4000

or

Gearbox Only - $2800

Flywheel & Clutch Only - $1000

Conversion Parts - $400

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By Duncan · Posted

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
