Greetz guys, I have a couple of issues with a manual conversion I just performed. The vehicle is an R32 GTS-t.

I replaced the auto box with an R33 Nismo 5-speed close ratio box with a 2-ton clutch and ceramic 9 puck plate. The three main problems are as follows:

1: Whenever I change into any gear above 2500-3000 rpm it crunches into gear, below these revs and she swaps smoothly.

2: If I'm stationary or moving, in or out of gear, and punch the clutch with approx 4000+ rpm, the box starts grinding continuously until I pump the clutch a few times and then it ceases.

3: The speed sensor in the box is an electronic pulse type, the R32 is a cable driven sensor. What are my options available so I can have my speedometer back?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @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.  
    • 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.
    • 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?
