hey all i went to get a shift kit fitted in my r33, and i found out that i have a 5 speed auto and that there is no shift kit for this.

just wondering has anyone got any info at all about these? and also is there anyway to beef them up?

thanks heaps in advance.

oh you mean the 4-speed auto

standard is 4-speed with OD - whoops i mean't 4 speed in this :) changed it now

not sure why the shift kit won't fit in it though? as they are the same model number? and have mostly the same parts?

what number is on the box itself?

wierd, R4's are the 4speed, that's that the 4 stands for

Jatco RE4R01A which is standard in most skylines, are you sure you haven't got that?

Which shop are you talking about?

Might be good to talk to MV Automatics or Knox Automatics, they'd know what fits your box.

I think they use a manual valve body upgrade from a Nissan Patrol in their kits with some welsh plugs to block off some of the holes

If you have the 5-speed it's be:

Jatco JR507E transmission

which is what come in Cimas, Presidents and a few other V8s and things and possibly some skylines, if you've got the 5 on your box number, then maybe someone put int a v8 box, changed the bellhousing, tailshaft and a few other things to get a longer drive ratio, it's a tad strange though

RE4R01A - 4 Speed

RE5R01A (or JR502E) - 5 Speed

Either way I know MV Automatics' have done shift kits for 5-speeds (eg. Zoom/ HPI's project 11sec 4-door) so, Im sure other competent trans specialists are able to do it.

There was a 5 speed fitted to some skyline models - check out some past issues of Zoom mag in their R33 4 door project car. They did some upgrades to the box as well if I remember rightly.

      Mate you saved be from dying in the Perth summer. AC wasn't changing direction and just going into diagnostics mode fixed it. You're a legend and I would shout you a beer if I could!

      Unfortunately effort gone to waste, you will have substantial issues with how the manifold and wastegate have been integrated. You would be so much better off with a modified stock manifold like this: https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25detexgatedmanifold/   OR literally just getting a off the shelf Sinco or 6Boost manifold as myself and others have mentioned.

      Yuck. But it's kinda the same principle, moving timing around to make car run bad but sound good.... I went for a more spirited tuning drive to iron out a few things. Car no longer stalls, and it loved to dip RPM low when you clutch in. After tuning this (and the 4-5 tables that HPTuners/LS1 OEM ECU wants for idle air correction) it's now behaving somewhat normal. All expected because there's a new TB, new Intake manifold and that new TB which is 102mm vs 78... has an entirely different IAC passage which is smaller because ????? Unfortunately at this point I went to make further fine tuning changes to avoid it flaring up, you know... _tuning_ the HPTuners dongle died. Well to be more accurate - The USB cable died in a fashion that anyone who has ever charged a phone will recognize. After the app demanding I resync it 50 or so times (which all 'succeeded' but all failed) the device does not want to sync and I've logged a ticket with support to see if it's fixable. US Support said it was a 'storage issue' but after removing the SD card inside it and formatting it/fixing it the issue does persist. Unfortunately usually the fix is "Turn in your old dongle and pay $700 for the upgraded one" it's cheaper because I get some free licence credits I unfortunately don't need. However I'm 10 minutes down the road from HP Tuners AUS/VCM so at least I won't need to post it, and logged a new ticket for support over here. Definitely drives different. My SOTP dyno believes it's probably making 310-320kw instead of the 280 before.  It scrambles for traction a little now whereas it previously different. It drives like a bigger cam car up top even though the cam is smaller, likely due to the cam not being advanced 6 degrees. The timing is deliberately low and the fuel is very rich so who knows if this will improve on the dyno. It may, imperceptably. Also funny is removing the pineapples definitely makes the car squat more and axle tramp less. So this behavior of having more top end, squatting more, and scrabbling for traction more makes me think = more power. But I could have just been sitting on the threshold of that kind of behavior before. Time will tell if my butt dyno is calibrated right. I need the exhaust leaks fixed before dyno tune for obvious AFR related reasons - I repositioned the pipes but I'm not confident it's fully sealed even if it is better. At least the car does drive around while I cannot tweak/tune it for now. And I have aircon again. medium success!
