See what I mean about confusing ;)

There is a NISMO kit and a seperate Nissan Motorsport kit which are 2  different kits. The Nissan Kit fitted to yours was available as an add-on when you bought your car (like a sunroof, colours etc). The NISMO kit wasn't, it had to be bought seperately.

little less lost now :D anyone got a pic of the NISMO kit on a coupe?

1999 white er34GTT lowerd, K&N pod filter,Greddy spark plugs, apexi power fc, blitz lm intercooler, apexi avcr, 3x BLM blitz guages where the orignal cluster were, 3" exhaust from turbo back, at the moment its gettin coilovers injectors pump and clutch, than it goes of to get a respray, plates say SLO*34

I suggest looking at the yahoo auctions for these parts and get slidewize imports to bring them in. Prices shouldn't be too bad if you're prepared to wait around 6-8 weeks for it and you have a higher chance of finding one in your factory colour to bolt straight on.

The front lip copies from car mate are selling for $280.00 excl. delivery (without paint or fitment). Even if delivery is another $30-$40 on top, I think that it will be cheaper than getting it from Japan.

Besides, it's a front lip... it is bound to sustain some damage and its just not worth spending so much money on ;) Sure I'd like to have a carbo fibre one too, but it just doesn't make sense to.

    • Hello Liam - HA - somewhere in flies - possibly I have an update, but I have been so busy, projects have taken a back seat to getting business back on track.  I will let you know the outcome, but I think I am going to go for the 8HP,  CHEERS.  ELVIS
    • Thanks Joshuaho96, yes - as someone else also suggested, the 8HP seems the 'smart choice' - HA - and ZERO to do with cost, but I am sure 8 speeds will be better than 6 speeds - HA - maybe.  I will purchase a new 8HP,  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Nobody said anything about getting a "...cheap Falcon box..."- it was JUST a question about a specific transmission.  And YOU may have a problem with not enough $ - HA - I do NOT - so please keep your comments like you are some financial guru to yourself.  BUT - much appreciated re the cost of a new 8HP and I twill probably be the way I go.  Thanks.  ELVIS.
    • Most people I know in the BMW world are swapping 6HPs for 8HPs. The 6HP has a big issue with one of the clutch drum bushings wearing out shockingly early which leads to them going into limp mode going into 5th/6th gear as the oil pressure loss from the worn bushing causes clutch slip. Even with the adaptations in shifting the TCU can't bump line pressure enough to keep the clutches from slipping and burning. I've personally looked at a 335d with 6HP28 with one owner and ~90k miles on it and the transmission adaptations were way out of spec and even though it nominally drove ok I'm confident it would have needed a full rebuild sooner than later. Other than that they're fine, but the 8HP doesn't really have weird issues like this to my knowledge and they're in everything these days so pulling them out of crashed cars isn't too hard.
    • There is an ABS pump and a few solenoids. You could trigger the front/rear solenoids with a pressure bleeder attached with a Consult 2.
