I'm going fishing, should I get a manual reel or an auto? And what should I catch? PHATT you shouldn't ask ppl to help you plan, you should have a plan and then see what is wrong with it. I'd be mo

That would be a nope

so where you just messing with me before with 12k hp gtt? I've been Skyline man since my P's-so because I'm between skylines at the moment does that mean I should get off SAU? I'm trying to get help from you guys & decide wether to go manual or auto, is that a crime???

I'm importing r34 gtt to chase hp-will be w/e car & MAYBE try at drags once or twice, see what happens

get a manual. The auto is fine 90% of the time for a daily but there are times it can be a pain in the ass. and being a w/e you shouldn't buy an auto.

The lag from the converter, the sometimes non existent power, the flair on gear changes if it's not tuned and even after it's tuned if you want and make more power it will start to flair again until you do the welsh plug mod, then again when you make more power.

If you're thinking about doing some local twisties because you didn't mention the track, the awd auto is great depending on the road. Tight corners where you can stay in second is fine but anything over that speed you will only have the overdrive button to lock gears. Being rwd with power, if you want more power mid corner and it kicks down mid corner you may find yourself in trouble. The awd is much easier to control when this happens, otherwise you will have to find the happy medium with throttle position. I don't do many hill runs, but when i have i found the auto great being awd and easy to control and to get the most power all the time, i couldn't imagine it with a rwd.

thanks so much Trex, much appreciated. Gives me a bit to think about. Will not be doing twisties, just w/e & may try luck at q/m. I didn't think awd came in gtt(excuse my ignorance)-I thought only N/A gt4 or gtr(which in r34 out of my budget)?

ohh that was my next q, thought might be Stagea. The only issues I have with manual are that I live in Melbourne's North, lot of traffick, stop start(roundabouts etc) & tons of new speed cameras-I only have 1 or 2 points left. Not promoting hooning. Even our freeways suck b$&))! Because a lot have recently been dropped from 100 to 80- even 70 kms & new cameras been put up to reinforce this. But will still consider manul

thanks Cowboy1600, I am newbie here so appreciate it. I've also gone over some threads & saw that Hadouken just loves taking the piss(especially from newbies). It's ok, I think he just needs a hug haha

honestly, if you saw him a hug would be the last thing you'd want to do. :wub:

keep reading mate, it's the only way you'll learn and not get taken advantage. Most, if not all have been taken advantage of when changing platforms and learning new things. Keep reading and get a fair understanding on what is going on and how to achieve your goals before importing the car.

So you don't have a car, but will get 2 g tax return soon then shoot for max hp?

no, I have 2 cars atm(Commodore & VRX) & in process of buying r34 gtt(importing) & have 3k(seperate for r34 budget) & expecting another 3-4k with tax return. So 6-7k just for modding

Oh cool. Well that's the trans sorted.

Then you are left with a stock car with a sweet as trans.

so trans will cost 6-7k to build? Earlier in thread someone said 2-3k for trans but then Kinkstaa said he spent 10k. Can I not get built for 2-3k?

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.

      How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use

      I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.

      You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
