What's your budget?

i kinda mentioned earlier-I know it's a bit vague but about 2-3k now, 3-4k in next 2 weeks(after tax) & the rest will be spent over next few months(as I save up a bit). Am planning on holding on to this r34 & making w/e & project car. Have another car

I had considered selling the entire box and transmission setup if the torque converter I am getting built doesn't end up doing what I want the car to do very well

(someone may want it for a different application, i.e drag)

But in all honesty, get the manual

If you would like to me expand on it, you should really, really, really get the manual.

To expand further, the gearbox has cost me closer to 10K to get it to where it is, which is good, but unless the TC from TCE makes it better than a manual (arguable!) you're at least, least, least spending 10K to get to the level where a $0 manual gearbox is at.

get the manual

You have spent more than most with the auto controller etc, but by far the best drivability from any built auto I have driven.

When comparing to the manual box, remember a decent clutch to hold 4-450kw is over 2 grand. And it wouldn't last long at that power without a gearset. You could potentially spend similar coin on the manual setup.

REALLY....10k!!! I don't mind spending 10k on all mods(eventually) but you are right, I can't justify 10k just on the trans box. Sh$&! Manual is fun but I live in Melbourne's North & hard to enjoy due to traffic, stop start of all roundabouts & the speed cameras are everywhere now(I'm not an irresponsible hoon & don't condone it on streets). But just going 2-3 kms over=ticket, points gone-no license. Sorry about essay ha

also Kinkstaah(was it Gregg?), I meant before are you looking to sell entire car?

mmmhhh....interesting Scotty, & thanks so much. I didn't think of that. I wouldn't even mind spending 2-3k more to get high hp Auto r34 going. Like manual, love Auto. now all I need is to win lotto & get dual clutch r35 haha

Nah mate. Seen it with my own 2 eyes. Skidz 4 dayz

WOW, I'm impressed! I've worked with a lot of Auto Shops in Melbourne with marketing & ads & could never find something that high! That's like over 1k hp! Tip my hat. What State?

do you think Auto r34 could ever get close to those numbers?

As stated earlier-recently sold one, am sifting through jap auctions to buy gtt as we speak(also considering Vic market). Sorry, Can't tell, you guys Gtstboy & Ben c34 being sarcastic or genuine?

gtsboy likes deers. and benc34 wants an na 34, so he's asking to gauge whether you'd be interested in selling yours.

    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
