Hi Guys,

Back again. Had to make a new membership becuase my old one is really screwed up.

I just wanted to let you know that in relation to the topic of discussion that generated so many posts before, my R34 GTT also managed to finally lock into 3rd gear.

Rather than re-wire Solenoid B, which is one of the designated fault sources for this problem, I managed to source a Nissan shift solenoid kit from Nissan Australia. Specifically, from their dealership at Burwood.

The cost.................$449.

The install...............$350.

The car now runs as it should.

I will post the part number for the shift solenoid kit shortly.

Regards

Jim (TR34GT)

Good to hear you got it sorted, it's damn annoying when it happens!

Hey 666DAN,

Thanks mate. It was a long process. Would you believe that it was only the guys in South Australia, MV Automatics, who had faith in the solenoid re-wiring. I couldn't get anyone to re-wire where I live. The guys here had no experience in this regard. I can thoroughly recommend getting hold of the full solenoid kit though. You were right. It was the solenoids after all. Glad I took the chance, as right up to the end, my autotrans (specialists) could not read the fault code, even when I brought the car to them with the fault still in place.

By the way, the $40 induction box we made still works a treat.

Watch this space for the answer to the negative camber adjustment on my car as well as a performance tyre at the right price.

Hope all is well. Regards

Thanks for the follow up mate.. it's great when members are able to come back and tell us how they went.

Hey Howie.

Just wanted to let you know that the part number mentioned was definitely right.

The wrong part number was ordered twice yb different autotrans specialists, until I found the right people to speak to at Nissan.

Hope all is well, and the white R34 in the pic looks great.

    • Pretty simple question. I was about to put the transmission back in and thought I pretty much had it lined up when I noticed it seems like the pressure plate isn't flat. I was pretty careful when undoing the bolts both during initial disassembly for cleaning and when torquing them up for installation so this is pretty discouraging. I'm not sure if I accidentally bumped the pressure plate with the input shaft and bent it somehow or if it just showed up this way. Is it possible that there's just something obvious I'm not doing correctly? I'm pretty sure I was extremely careful to make sure the friction discs were seated correctly in the hub, everything lined up, flywheel torqued according to sequence, the little springs all sitting correctly in their seats, etc.  What's the play here? Do I jump straight to a new pressure plate?
    • OK. I can see that being the case. But if you live in the land of "only switching between 4.08, 4.11, 4.36" like most Skyliners, then you never encounter it. Now I perhaps understand why the crownwheel is thicker on some of the smaller numerical ratio diffs. The two stubs being the same (unequal) lengths and just swapped side to side between the different cases is a new one to me. I'm hating Nissan R200s more than ever now.
    • Reason I say this is I have seen broken ones, in drift, drag and even behind a stock Z. I do appreciate most of the time its the synchro's that go.   Trouble with quoting HP is it doesn't really say how strong the box is.  I've not seen many CD00X box's make it past a mid 9(150mph) I have seen about a stock R33 RB25 box's run a 9 too, they all go boom at some point though.   Another clue is they make gearsets for CD00X box's too, wouldn't be a market if they didn't break or have a limit people are going past.   I totally agree it is a strong box, just have to weigh up the true total cost of the conversion vs rebuilding with a good gearset. 
    • What makes you say CD009 boxes are not as strong as you would think? I've always been told the last revision (CD00A) is good for 1000whp and I have no issue's believing it when comparing one side by side with an RB25 box. Makes them look tiny. 
    • I picked up an open Center with shafts. I was told the Open shafts will fit a mechanical LSD and looking at them. I think they will work. Will update
