I picked up my new skyline yesturday however there is a slight problem with it. I found out if you shift to hard the gear selector pops out. I quickly took it appart to find the source of the problem.

I don't know the exact part so i'll try to explain it (excuse crappy description)

On the end of the gear stick is a steel ball which sits in a plastic sleave which then goes into the gearbox. Its this plastic sleave which is cracked allowing the selector to seperate from the gearbox. I can draw a picture if required :(

As im completely newb to this i have no idea where i can source this part.

Also of note the car has a short shifter on it but i think this will be a factory part?

Thanks in advance

As has been suggested, can be bought from any Nissan dealer. I just got one for a GTR....cost $5

If you want to post the car model and year I can look up the PN in FAST - saves a lot of time when you go to a dealer.

Nissan dealers always need the model and chassis code and can be a bit tedious. You will have to pay up front for not in stock parts. I ordered the cam belt guide plates and woodruff keys for mine today but they had them in Melb.

Awwwww, shucks :D [waits for applause]

I've known the spare parts manager at FTG Nissan for the best part of 15 years...he actually appreciates the time saving. I'm to the stage that I can order parts over the phone.....but then I've bought a LOT of parts over those years.

Isnt it the circlip that holds the selecter in the gearbox? I cant completely remember but that is what my fuzzy memory is telling me, the plastic boot just makes it feel alot less sloppy.

There's a rubber boot that's there to keep water/dirt out if that's what you mean.

Tragic: check your PM.

Nah i know the boot your talking about, isnt tragic talking about the white plastic cap that fits over the bulge at the very bottom of the selector?

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
