Freddy Kruger Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 have you tried searching? I think the ecus are different as the computer has to handle the auto gear changes. not positive on that tho. then theres the usual interior stuff like gear surrounds, clutch, pedals etc etc Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/128558-diff-different-between-auto-and-manual-r33/#findComment-2379274 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LBR33 Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Actually a auto computer can be used in a manual car but not the other way around Manual conversions can be found for 2.5k using a rb25 manual box and new HD organic clutch Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/128558-diff-different-between-auto-and-manual-r33/#findComment-2379298 Share on other sites More sharing options...
12DFY Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 Diff ratio's are also different. Still LSD and all, can get around this by calibrating your speedo. Everything else is exactly the same (apart form what was prviously stated about computer.

smurf80 Posted August 8, 2006 Share Posted August 8, 2006 Where does it say that there is a power difference from auto to manual? I was under the impression that they all have the same flywheel figures regardless.

dezz Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Says the manual is:183.88 kw / 6400 rpm 294.20 N*m / 4800 rpm makes sense..pretty sure series 1's are 184kw and series 2 are 187 (manual) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/128558-diff-different-between-auto-and-manual-r33/#findComment-2394264 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LBR33 Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Keep in mind people not every r33 skyline will make the same power they will vary 5-10% either way of their rated figure Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/128558-diff-different-between-auto-and-manual-r33/#findComment-2394300 Share on other sites More sharing options...
