hows the auto r33 going for ya? ever think about converting it into a manual ?

Auto is great - love the driveability, the quickness off the line without wheelspin & also the money i will save on clutches when i start racing it down the quarter!!!

So 2 answer ur question NO, i have never & will never think about converting it 2 a manual - wish more ppl could realise the benefits.

For the drag strip, the auto is king, manuals can still have a good run down the strip

For circuit, manuals are king, and i would hate to think how an auto goes around a track...

In traffic the auto would be much better, but the overall control of the car goes downhill with an auto, less in control...

Paintjobs different, i'll give you that... but the wheels ruin it...

i agree with u 100%, i hear what ur saying.

i like most ppl understand the benefits of a manual, but most ppl do not understand the benefits of an auto.

2 put it in perspective - i hear often "r u going 2 convert it to a manual" i would never ever hear if it was a manual "r u going 2 convert it to an auto"

the conclusion is most ppl think a manual is better, i disagree, that's all

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.

      I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.

      Noobie Stagea owner..

      Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
