hey guys,

The old man just yesterday payed for my r34 which is coming down from japan (WOHHOO best 19th bday present anyone could get i reckon)

Anyways i currently own a r33 manual, and unfortunately my dad saw dis 34 he liked (hes an importer) and bought me a nice lookin auto tiptronic one :D

I havent been in a tiptronic r34 so from anyones experience how does the tiptronic go? in terms of response, power etc.

Also havent told my dad yet lol, but i wouldnt mind converting it to manual once i get it complianced etc etc, anyone got a clue how much a r34 manual gearbox goes for? not including labour as hopefulli my dad will get around to doin it.

heres a pic if your wondering what it looks like, few scratches n dints but nothing a respray cant fix.

Hey dude, congrats on getting the 34. Not many people are as lucky as you :D.

I'm also wondering how much will the conversion of Auto to Manual cost on the 34. Correct me if i;m wrong but i think we could use a 33 gearbox on the 34 to cut costs? Can anyone verify that for us?

Can someone recommend a place to do the conersion in Melbourne as well?

    • I figured out what’s wrong. It’s something to do with the high beam wire short circuiting. When I measure the continuity with a multimeter on the headlight socket connector it gives me a continuous beeping noise when I put it on the ground socket and also on the high beam socket.  On the passenger side of the car (working side), it’s only beeping when the probe is on the ground socket. Which makes sense.  So that means it has something to do with the high beam power supply for the drivers side. How do I trace that? Is it the turn signal lever malfunctioning? The one that also controls the high beam and low beams.

    • How did you go with your problem? End up fixing it. Have a y34 aswell vq30det
    • But if I smoke test 5th cylinder it’s all ok, no leaks  when I try with 2nd it’s leaking exhaust and intake, it doesn’t come from oil dip stick.    so maybe when car was running poorly, rich or sth. Spark plugs were black and covered in charcoal or sth lookalike. could potential contamination make valves not seal properly? is there also a possibility that rb’s don’t have equal performing cooling passages  meaning back of the engine will be hotter than front. Can this cause improper wear if engine was running under load for short time? Or carbon build up could just burnt from 4-6 and is still on 1-3?   I out of my head like really. Timing is as manual crank-exhaust 47, exhaust-intake 38 at this point I thinking about give it a try and make another 500-1000km and check if anything change, if not I will most likely disassemble engine head /or whole engine and send it back to rebuild. It’s killing me
