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

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
