hey all,

relativly new to WA and am trying to locate somewhere with all the bits required for a manual conversion on an R33.

tried most places in the phonebook that look like they may stock nissan / jap parts but no luck ... a couple of places have some shipments due to arrive in a few weeks.

just wondering if anyone could suggest anywhere else i could try ?

cheers in advance

Didnt you used to be in SA? think I remember seeing you on the boards from time to time over there?

Anyway, the first place I would be checking, if you havent already,is C-Red.

Not sure of any other places, but if you get really stuck you could try the likes of D1 Garage over there.

R33 manual conversion (the boxes esp) are in quite high demand, thus they can be difficult to track down.

good luck.

hey steve ... how you been? yeah i used to live in SA, moved over here a lil while ago with work (still the same company)

i tried c-red but they seemed to be quite expensive. i have tried chasing all the gear down back home and could get all the parts for a (reasonable) price but would prefer to buy local incase of any drama's ...etc

in saying that i have scored a g/box today from interstate, but for the price i couldnt pass it up :P

so still searching for the rest of the bits required, not in any rush ... unless the auto decides to explode ha ha

philta,

cheers for the info mate! have spoken with ken @ hyper ... was quite helpful but im looking to save a few $$'s and have a bash at doing it myself. no better way to get to know your own car!!

I am 99% sure all the bits are at japan parts plus as I have been helping out while Raj is in Japan.

I have quoted a few half cuts and motor/box/ecu from a R33 so I know the bits are their, cant say what they will cost.

Raj is back tomorrow so drop a line to 0894932191 and see what he says, containers he just packed leave in a week.

They can do the conversion as well if required and have a very good hourly rate so ask him on that as well.

Nigel.

    • Hi all, I need to get this HKS SLD attached to my stock ECU because I've now got the German autobahn and faster European circuits to contend with.  The car is a manual 2dr ER34 with an AT ECU and I've realised the AT ECU has two pins for speed sensor signals: Pin 29: Vehicle speed sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 2) Pin *58: Output shaft rotation sensor signal (Vehicle speed sensor 1) - *RB25DET A/T model only Before I go butchering this harness, is anyone sure of which pin is the correct one for signal adjustment? The attached document from HKS indicates pin 29 but I found this situation mentioned in the following thread on a different forum (R34 GTT Auto Trans Speed Cut Problem | Zerotohundred) mentioning pin 58 needing to be altered by member zephuros, albeit it seems to be for an RSM-GP and the info appears to be old.  R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-2.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-3.pdf R34_All_Workshop_Manual-pages-1.pdf HKS SLD Vehicle Pin out P59-P70 ER34-pages.pdf

    • Slimline sub on the rear parcel shelf is doable. Pioneer TS-WX140DA is only 70mm high.   
    • People like Johnny Dose Bro might be laughing at my post because I accidentally added 100mm to my numbers. 350-355 is indeed the lower limit. 450 is off-road Skyline spec.
    • What is the "compromise" that you think will happen? Are you thinking that something will get damaged? The only things you have to be concerned about with spherical jointed suspension arms are; Arguments with the constabulary wrt their legality (they are likely to be illegal for road use without an engineering certificatation, and that may not be possible to obtain). A lot more NVH transmitted through to the passengers (which is hardly a concern for those with a preference for good handling, anyway). Greatly increased inspection and maintenance requirements (see above points, both).   It is extremely necessary to ask what car you are talking about. Your discussion on strut tops, for example, would be completely wrong for an R chassis, but be correct for an S chassis. R32s have specific problems that R33/4 do not have. Etc. I have hardened rubber bushes on upper rear control arms and traction rods. Adjustable length so as to be able to set both camber and bump steer. You cannot contemplate doing just the control arms and not the traction arms. And whatever bushing you have in one you should have in the other so that they have similar characteristics. Otherwise you can get increased oddness of behaviour as one bushing flexes and the other doesn't, changing the alignment between them. I have stock lower rear arms with urethane bushes. I may make changes here, these are are driven by the R32's geometry problems, so I won't discuss them here unless it proves necessary. I have spherical joints in the front caster rods. I have experienced absolutely no negatives and only positives from doing so. They are massively better than any other option. I have sphericals in the FUCAs, but this is driven largely by the (again) R32 specific problems with the motion of those arms. I just have to deal with the increased maintenance required. Given how much better the front end behaves with the sphericals in there.....I'd probably be tempted to go away from my preference (which is not to have sphericals on a road car, for 2 of the 3 reasons in the bulleted list above), just to gain those improvements. And so my preference for not using sphericals (in general) on a road car should be obvious. I use them judiciously, though, as required to solve particular problems.
