Was so looking at bidding on that but with just purchasing a new body kit, wheels, fmic and other goodies I should probably get all that out of the way first. And only living in a town house I don't know where the hell I would have stored it all :D But congrats, thats got to be the best way about going for a manual conversion and from what I could tell from the pics there looks to be a centre console there too! You bastard :)

Now we just need a few more 260RS's to be written off and I can bid again next time one comes up !jokes! :D

no f**king clue

ill figure it out

morning Nic

Good luck with the wiring thing/mission fella, I had no idea there was so much s$%t under there, should be easy for a decent auto=sparkie, plus bonus Saki hey?

On another (completely unfocused from your immediate challenge, sorry) subject; Don't suppose you could post details/part #/Kit#supplier/source/where can I get one of these easyfit things from kindof info for your oil filter relocation setup by any chance. That is if you haven't already done this worthy deed in which case apologies & maybe point me in the right die-rection 'cos a "Graham look" didn't do it for me.

Cheers GW :unsure:

tghere is everything, console, pedals, ebrake etc etc etc

expect a lengthy writeup and parts list of what came with my kit and of course huge amount of pictures

I still hate you :wave:;):O

I can't believe it went for that price. I think I worked it out to be around $3500 to $4000 approx by the time it got to my door (which is a hell of a lot less than what you paid) but still a good deal considering EVERYTHING it came with.

Ahh well there will be another.......wont there :unsure:

And yeah I'm looking forward to the write up too...good luck!

Arrrrrrrrrgh! I live in the woods, don't have local friendly Greddy dealer, lucky to be able to buy BP Ultimate to be truthful soooooooooo.............no chance of posting the part number so can just specify & buy correct kit via internet. Yup, we do have data connection to the rest of the world. God bless Telstra. :)

Congrats on the purchase!!!

Just as a note the wiring side of the auto to manual swap is dead simple. Most of it comes unplugged behind the LF headlight & is removed when you take the Auto out. Then all you need to do is bridge the auto inhibitor switch so it will start & run a wire back from another plug for the reverse lights. Inside the car you will need to lengthen the wire from the handbrake lever to the new one on the trans tunnel. And that my friend is it.

See my Manual Conversion Guide for pics of the plugs.

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      This has been covered a bazillion times but google wet boiling point vs dry. Motul is only good when it's fresh, once it absorbs moisture it gets pretty average very quickly. So as above, make sure you change it if you're going racing. I run the Endless brake fluid in mind, but only because a mate is a distributor and it's cheap. It's not quite as good as SRF but I'm running 380mm rotors on a Skyline so it's not like they get hot.

      Does 98ron contain ethanol?

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      That's the thing, they still add it and it makes fuel cheaper, implying adding 10% of it drops the cost of 91 by what, 5c a liter? I remember when it was barely half the price of 98. Because you know, 85% of what is in the fuel is way cheaper than 91 fuel is by volume.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Auto electricians that do repairs on automotive AC systems can source service kits. I don't know where they actually source them. I do know that there is one available for the R34 comp that I would need it for. If you have to pay someone to dismantle, clean and do needed repairs and fit kit contents, then you'd probably end up spending a good fraction of the cost of a new one. I would not be paying for that, because I would be doing it myself. My mechanic (bro-in-law) will happily source what is needed. Back in the day (like in the 80s and 90s), rebuilding an AC compressor was the standard approach, same as for starter motors, alternators, etc, because new replacements were v. expensive. After the China manufacturing boom and the rise of the disposable approach to everything, people just started throwing broken/worn stuff away and not rebuilding things.

      By silviaz · Posted

      Is rebuilding it even a thing? Where would the shop find parts for it? I looked at some off these local online stores for my r34 and suprisingly they had brand new aftetmarket ones for $600-800 I think. I guess r32 might be a bit tougher.

      I remember the days when E85 was priced in according to the $ per km outcome. Sure E85 was about 35% cheaper, but you also lost about 35% range... now it's fked..
