There wont be much in it. It will probably be slightly slower off the line than something that was manual to start with but there are plenty of other variables to change that anyway.

Put it this way; at 100km/h in 4th (manual) with auto diff you are doing about 2340rpm but change the diff ratio to the manual diff and you only slow down to 99.3km/h.

Disclaimer - this presumes I've done my calculations correctly...

hey guys if an auto to manual conversion is done to an r34 gtt and i replace standard ecu with powerfc will i have to change the whole wiring loom????

i am currently in the process of trying to fit the emanage ultimate to my car and it looks as though it may not work properly?? so a manual conversion is the path i may have to take to get my desired results.

if the loom doesn;t need changing theoretically it shouldnt be too hard

i have put together a list of some parts i think i will need.

Gearbox

clutch

clutch pedal box

power fc(handcontroller)

plastic gbox surround

new intrument cluster

eventually new steering wheel

tailshaft???

wiring loom??

Am i missing any parts i have pretty much just stated the obvious ar ethere any tricky little parts that i may be forgetting??

At the risk of hi-jacking a thread, how much is it to get a transmission conversion from Auto to Manual? Is there a massive benefit in doing this?

Anyone know the diff ratios for both auto & manual on the R34 GTT.

I am getting my gearbox swapped and wondering what kind of effect the change will have on acceleration, speedo, etc.

Anyone know?

Cheers.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
