I did a search but couldnt find the original thread the link went to, probably lost.

Give Mike a call (number is on the first post) or email him at MV Automatics (think the address is in here somewhere or use whitepages.com.au) for specific information on hi stall torque converters or for more info on the valve bodies (they are a great mod and well worth the money)

just got off from work so mv should be closed. will try to call tomorrow before the weekends. just a question though if i install this shift kit would the bov sound still sound the same as i know it shifts much quicker between gears then my stock.

^^^ The quicker shifts won't effect affect the function/ sound of your bov. Unlike with manuals you don't normally lift from the gas pedal (closing the throttle) during shifts so the bov shouldn't open which means no sound.

Anyone had a go at installing one themselves and want to share? Difficulty level?

I recently had my trans serviced (ATF flushed and replaced) so dont want to fork out all that money again....argh.

I have access to a hydrolic hoist, all the right tools ect.

Honestly, this it quite easy just need to take your time and be very methodical about it. The little black box is also pretty easy to install, as long as you follow the instructions and again take your time. And even if you do got stuck give Mike a call.

The hardiest part is holding the new part up while doing up the bolts.

fitting a Stage 1 MV Automatics valve body at the moment, Mike's notes says to block off and remove springs for the middle 2 acumulators with welsh plugs, done.

But i seem to remember on a previous install that only 1 of the end springs goes back in, but in his notes it implies that both end springs are retained.

Anyone done an install in an R34 'b' box lately and can shed some light ?

thanks

Inline with GB rules about having a start & end date - this is now closed.

SAU is clamping down on these GB's that never occur, never end, and so on.

PM me if you have a problem. However, before you PM me think about this.

A group buy, is a group of people buying the product together to lower the price.

Buying single units here and there is not what constitutes a GROUP BUY

Thanks

    • (it is a brand new ported mellings pump) I suspect the lack of pressure is due to the leak. It was *not* that low in other logs of oil pressure in the past. It wasn't that hot either, but not far off.
    • Would a Mellings oil pump be a viable option  From my time with a LS, and talking to tuners and LS specialists, the "weak" OEM oil pump is one of the first things they recommend to swap out if I was going to give the engine any high RPM I opted for a Mellings high volume, with the high pressure springs and I never had a issue with it Cost wise they are not expensive in the scheme of things 
    • Just bought a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO VQ25DET and spent the last two weekends cleaning and detailing it.. still have to do the wheels and the engine bay but the rest of it came up nice. Imported 2011 to S.A. and I'm the third owner since it was imported. I met the guy who brought it over, he went to Japan and picked out the car, bought it and ordered the wheels. He also gave me a list of stuff he did to the car with receipts. Coil overs (I have the original springs), 3" exhaust from the dump pipe back no cat, Custom dump pipe,(I have the original exhaust), Plenum spacer, 18" custom Work XSA wheels (need restoring, I've made a start..), Shift kit put through the 5 speed tiptronic auto, TV and menus/screens changed to english, Australian DTV tuner installed in rear. I've just had four new discs and new pads as well as all the fluids including the brake fluid replaced. I have all the receipts for the last 15 years and the import papers in a nice folder. Car looks great, goes like hell but fuel economy is not a thing lol.. pics next..
    • I ended up in this rut again lol, and used a shit ton of filler. One thing I can't understand is, even after using a big long block and going in long X pattern strokes, I always end up at bare metal again with no filler, and my repair started at one end of the door and now I've chased my tail to almost the other end of the door. I was thinking of hitting the panel with a hammer where it might be a high spot and making everything low then filling it, I did this on a small section on my other door by mistake and I think I fixed it lol. Is this a bad idea? The other thing is with guidecoat, whether it's the powder or spray, after I sand all the guide coat off, it doesn't reveal anything for me in terms of high spots and low spots and makes it especially hard when it's bare metal (at least in powdered form), am I doing something wrong here, or likely a high spot I keep going over and creating valleys? Lastly, stupid question but, is it possible that after sanding if I only sand over the filler area where I know to be a dent that it's impossible for me to dig into that dent? Unless there are other problems which I missed.
