You could also replace/upgrade the return springs to give it a tighter feel

There are 3 options hard, medium, soft, which one to choose without trying them all out ?

Anyone have opinions on the return spring, also brass or nylon bushing.

Thanks

No way will you tell the difference between a brass or nylon bushing.

 

The springs are cheap as. Just buy them all and find what you like.. Or do you prefer some random guy to tell you their prefefence?

Buy a new cup, wave washer and shifter bush from Taarks or Kudos. Get shifter springs from gktech. Do fresh gearbox oil with a tube of nulon smooth shift. That's about the best you can do. Stay away from the ebay offerings.

Don't mean to bring this thread back from the dead but I have also been thinking of a new shorter throw shifter for the GTR.  I know there's pros and cons I've read on here about this, but seems like the Nismo 25% one is good and about $300 (USD) here in Japan but the Cube speed ones look nice too and are less expensive.  People really prefer OEM over one of these models? 

Example of the Nismo 25% reduced shifter: https://page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/g424885412

I have a hardly used Nismo 25% quick shifter here that I was running on the 32R with an OS giken 5 speed. It was awesome - the tightness changed and is very very short shifts, but very positive. I rate them.

I've since changed to a dog box but have the stock shifter with that box now, as the stock shifter is a bit quicker to remove. I should try the quick shifter with the dog box, but I have heard of it not being good with it. I might stick it in the 33.

The cube speed shifter comes with everything you need to swap it. Far far better than the nismo shifter. I have had a chiza, nismo and now a cube and the cube wins hands down

Do you have the standard or the "premium" cube shifter?

So you think I should just get a new bushing brass or plastic ?

Check out this guru - good ol' Americans make me laugh 🤣

I knew there was a reason I was so sceptical about ever using a brass shifter bush....

    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
