Is it usable with a rb25 neo?

Well.... maybe. What TCU is there? Keep in mind that a NEO ECU either expects to also be the TCU (when it's out of a GT-T) or it expects to talk to a separate TCU. There are specific bits of information that go backwards and forwards between these boxes, and it is almost certain that a Z32 TCU won't speak the right dialect.

If you were using an aftermarket ECU with the Neo, it would probably be a lot easier. And in fact, these days people like Haltech are rolling transmission control into their ECU's capabilities because of just these problems.

It would also be possible to go a standalone aftermarket TCU, although that might be difficult to integrate properly with a factory Neo ECU, for the same reasons again.

If it is in an R31, and behind an RB, then someone has probably put it together, because the VG bellhousing is not the same as the RB bellhousing, even if there are usually similar gearboxen hanging off the back of them.

Google search of 51x00 shows up many parts that refer to Z32, but that may or may not mean anything. The number also shows up some Maxima parts (which were also VG, but FWD) and so it is possible that it pertains to a whole slew of Nissan trannies.

Google of model number shows 300zx

Post up what the entire tag says. Is JATCO mentioned. If its a RE4RO3A, I have one in a R33, bolted to a RB 30/25 with neo head and cold side. It physically fits with modified converter, tailshaft and rear mount. The RE4R01A bellhousing for Skyline bolts straight on.  Never got the box to play nice with the Nistune R32 ecu and matching TCU  so went manual valve body to make it work. Are you confusing big shift kit with manual valve body.

    • Lets say I wanted to buy this, specifically for this purpose. How do I actually perform the function. Can I still buy a Consult-1? Am I about to be burned by the fact my car is a 2000 model Series 2 R34 and thus will be some stupid other system? Do I just need this -> https://obd2australia.com.au/product/nissan-consult-14-pin-to-usb-ddl-diagnostic-interface-with-ftdi-ft232r-chip/ And with what software?
    • That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc. 
    • Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?
    • Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...
    • The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
