Your plan sucks.

ps. Thanks for not being TOO direct in your answer/opinion(that's me taking the piss now). A simple "maybe not a good idea" or "too costly" would have been sufficient. Edited by MR PHATT

Thanks for the tip.

My thoughts are this atm=import clean r34 gtt-auto, mod to the max, if still having issues with trans box by start of 2016 then convert to manual. Any thoughts? I know manual conversion is pain in the a$$, but any one have price estimate?

This is literally the worst idea on the forum in terms of start to finish

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 more concerned about turbo, IC, computer, dump/exhaust, injectors, pump, brakes, suspension, etc etc...........Theres $10K in that alone.

Your a long way away from maxing out a GTT in manual or auto TBH. Work at the basic things and get them sorted first.

No wonder they are razzing you, its these sort of threads that make their day.

true & thanks

Ok, ok, guys I know I went a bit off track & probably deserve a bit of s$&t stirring at the end, haha. I'm bidding on car later tonight(think manual) & have another in Vic I'm viewing(auto) on w/e. Both gtt. Going back to my original question=I just wanted to know if autos & manuals had similar hp capabilities, yes Ben & Hadouken "Mod to the max" capabilities haha? To help me decide which one

as soon as I posted that last idea I regretted it, was bad idea. Now knowing you have 400rwkw auto, & how much you've spent, I know not good idea at all

It's very easy to poke fun and have a lols at others who are just starting out and asking (what to more ... learned posters) can be silly questions

When the truth is you're likely just enthusiastic and excited and looking starry-eyed into the future of a nice well sorted high HP enjoyable skyline

well, let my jaded, aged eyes be the voice of reason and say OH SHIT SON BUY A f**kING MANUAL.

Better yet, buy someone else's project.

The way you're going about it is all wrong, has nothing to do with auto or manual.

Cheers Kinkstaah. I am excited & realised I am jumping the gun. Was just so happy to sell N/A 34 & jump in to turbo. I understand it's a long (& expensive) road now.Taking all on board, thanks. Ps. Last import looked I had to say no as had a Nismo S tune body kit(did no like front bar) & big ass wing, was disappointed. I am now looking at others projects also.

At least you're selling the N/A and getting a turbo.

Do the smart thing and read read read. There's a clear upgrade path almost everyone follows on a long enough timeline.

Going to that point directly will save you many tens of thousands of dollars and years of labor and pain.

It could be argued that no one would do that/see the value in it until they've already done it the hard way once first though.

    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
