Hi guys, I'm new to SAU-read a lot of your posts though & very helpful. I'm currently waiting to import Black R34 gtt in Auto(yes I can drive manual though prefer Auto slightly more) & I'm wondering if you guys know the maximum potential of an auto r34? Planning on modding it with all usual suspects eg 3" cat, intercooler, new ecu + e85 & upgrade transmission etc. what could I expect -max hp wise??? Thanks in advance

The potential of a stock box? Not much more than stock power (with a tune)

Potential of a box with $3,000 spent on it? A lot more than stock power.

Don't chase 300rwkw+ with a factory auto, you're gonna have a VERY bad time,

Thanks guys. I sold my N/A r34 because I'm now ready to chase high HP. I have a performance guy/garage that I'm close with in Northern Melbourne & yes I will be going bigger turbo, maybe Garret. Just need to decide on tuner. Just need to confirm R31Nioid, if I upgrade "slush box" (auto haha) then I can chase 600-700 hp at flywheel? Thanks guys

Yes

Greg managed 400kw from his 34, but it is a built 2.8 with a built auto.

I would be looking to keep it around 300kw, for auto longevity, but it will need a valve body upgrade and large trans cooler at a minimum.

I have few grand to star Gtstboy but doing tax soon & expecting descent return as industry I'm in (not porn industry but am considering it) ha. Also Scotty- is Gregg's an rb26 stroked to 2.8? And sorry(I'm no expert) but what is a valve body upgrade?

I don't think there much money in the porn industry for a male , unless your planning on man on man..

Nahhh Darren, no man on man here mate!!! Sorry to disappoint haha. Anyways, so Darren do autos pull all over the shop in kws? Ps. I will have more than 2 grand for modding, just over a few months or so. I really don't want to go manual-but if huge difference in kW capabilities then maybe think about it. Or try rb25/30 on auto with built box

    • Hey crew, Failed my WOF cause of a lower control arm, and I've decided to hit both arms, and also the compression rods at the same time(seems they're gonna be the most likely upcoming failure points from some discussions with the lads over on the G35 reddit). I've looking at these form Z1:  https://www.z1motorsports.com/front-suspension/hayaku-automotive/hayaku-g35-front-compression-rod-p-40716.html https://www.z1motorsports.com/front-suspension/hayaku-automotive/hayaku-g35-front-lower-control-arm-p-40674.html I asked Z1 if they'd work as it's the same platform, just RHD vs LHD. I basically got told "Lol dunno". Specifically they aren't aware of any difference but can't guarantee fitment as they haven't done it on a 350GT. So guess I'm asking is if there is any issues with using 2005 G35 coupe suspension parts on a 2005 350GT coupe? Orginally I thought it could be something in the way of the arms that each control arm is designed to be positioned around, but that'd be an engineering nightmare for Nissan needing two different shaped control arms 😅
    • ^ This. The mode door actuator is a common failure, as is the actuator and/or the actual valve for the coolant flow control valve. I also don't know how available the mode door actuator is these days. I've been meaning to look into it and get one from wherever is possible, to keep in the shed for the rainy day when mine eventually fails. Anyway, the advice to you is to search the usual NOS part supply places, or even just go to Nissan and see what they list.
    • Have you got a pic of the actuator? My guess is that unit has failed internally and was flopping around, so the previous engineer who owned it forced it to be fully open to cold air (blocking the heater core path). As far as you can tell, is anything else wrong in the system? Likely you just need a new actuator (not sure how available they are) and then "installation is the reverse of disassembly"
    • I'm happy with the Lsailt unit that I put in, it puts full Android on the top screen so you can run whatever Nav and other Apps you want, while still existing inside the factory functionality like automatic reverse cams, audio input switching, retains factory bluetooth etc. Not cheap and the install was moderate (not simple, not hard) Yours is a V36 not V37 though right?
    • Yeap, all the NC's that I originally looked at that had a hard top were PRHT, which makes the roof line look horrible, hence why I said nope to them My only caveat for another MX5 was it needed to have a hard top, and initially I didn't think you could get a detachable hard top for the NC,  like my NB had Again, a big thanks to Matty for helping me source the detachable hard top for my little girl, they are as rare as hens teeth in Australia, and the few people who have them, keep them Also to Greg, for initially pointing me in the NC direction NC PRHT 🤢🤮 Not mine (I really should take more photos of my car), but a NC with the detachable hard top 😁 To me, the difference in how the detachable hard top roof line looks, and how it actually follows the bodies lines, like they do on NA's and NB's, is chalk and cheese compared to the bulbous looking PRHT
