Is the 34 DE box tiptronic?

Thanks I am very new to all things R34. an know nothing about the others. 

I have a R34 coupe 25gt. non turbo. Yes Its an Auto. I want to convert it and I know many have done that Nothing new Right? 

There are a few R33 Non turbo boxes around. I was wondering will one of them work. As at the moment cannot find a R34 box non Turbo. 

I have been looking on the forum for similar post cant find any thing as yet. point me to a post topic. Thank you for the reply

I repeat. Is your current box TIPTRONIC? As in, does it have shift buttons on the steering wheel? If so, forget about using an R33 box, as they will not be the same box. Will not swap.

Yes It is TIPTRONIC . is the bell housing bolt pattern different on the block ? my My engine is an RB25de. just to clarify I am talking about Automatic to a Manual 5 speed. conversion. Thank you for you help.

In that case it will fit. There are at least 3 tutorials on this site - best way to find them is to Google  although I know there is one in the Stagea Section which also has a useful shopping list of things you will need (much the same as for your car) and one in the general DIY section .

My Fault. I mean appreciated. The Spell checker. I just cant get it right today

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
