Hi guys,

Its been on my mind for such a long time and finally I've decided to manual my r34 sedan. Just have a lot of questions which need to be answered lol.

Firstly what box would be best to put in? I know obviously a r34 gtt box will fit along with a R33 gtst box but will a r33 gtr box fit? Anyone know the differences?

As for the diff would the auto diff be fine with the manual box and what is the difference between the r34 clutch and brake pedals compared to the r33.

Also with a r33 gearbox installed would the r34 leather surrounding fit?

Car is currently running 190kw with the auto what would should i except to run with the manual? What would be the best clutch to use?

Ive been quoted $2500 drive in drive out, with a excedy heavy duty clutch and a r33 gearbox. Is this a good price?

Cheers guys any help would be great, anyone whos gone through it your suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks once again :P

I dont think the GTR box would be an easy or cheap option but 6 gears would be great if you have the money :devil:

As for the diff would the auto diff be fine with the manual box and what is the difference between the r34 clutch and brake pedals compared to the r33.

Auto Diff will be fine I think the only difference is the ratio. Its refered to as a Strengthend R200 (open Diff) for the Non turbo auto or manual or a Strengthend R200V on the turbo (LSD) for auto or manual.

The pedal box will fit except only 4 of the 5 mounting bolts will line up the last one needs a longer bolt and a spacer aparently

Also with a r33 gearbox installed would the r34 leather surrounding fit?

?????

Manuals lose less power through them than auto's just depends how well serviced your auto was.

sounds alright to me

      Finally replaced the previous temporary mesh indicator surrounds (temporary was the last 10+ years 😂) with a 3D printed GTR style version for the front indicators. I think it looks a lot nicer than the old setup and at least the indicators now point in the correct direction rather than angled off. Needed a little bit of tweaking to deal with the intercooler piping but got there in the end. Old and new photos below.

      It's weird to me that you say this because I'm pretty sure locals with relatively standard standalone tunes (boost/barometric compensated alpha-N) still have driveability issues when they pop intercooler hoses. Maybe with enough data I can just train some kind of model that spits out an expected grams/cyl given every sensor input except MAF like what FCA did with their Pentastar 3.6 ECU logic. Basically stock everything. The main motivation honestly is to have a sensor that can be a decent baseline source of truth. In scenarios you're describing obviously it won't work every time but it seems to me the number of corner cases that exist in MAF load is maybe not as severe and difficult to manage vs ITB alpha-N with some MAP/barometric compensation.

      What are your plans for your blow off valves? Purely plumb back? How soft will the spring in them be? AFM can be tricky to get super smooth and nice, especially depending on the rest of the system, and then can be very easily upset if something slightly changes. IE, even if you run recirc blow off valves, you could still see issues getting it to behave at certain load points as turbos might start to spool, but you release the throttle but it's not enough pressure to crack the bov open to recirc, and you can end up with reversion which can cause double metering, and hence dumping of fuel into the system, and stalling the engine.   If you're going to run a map sensor for closed loop boost control from the ECU, what makes you want to keep the AFM?

      It's not bad, it's just not flexible. And say if you have any leaks between the MAF and plenum, well then your load axis goes out the window. Here's a real world scenario, I blew off an intercooler hose last track day, as the clamp decided to Bluetooth itself somewhere. Still continued to do 2 laps and drive it to the pub for a couple of beers then home. Good luck doing that with a MAF setup

      Is MAF load really that bad? I'm not trying to do big power, my only real desire is VCAM and flex fuel support so I'm not terrified of blowing my engine apart from CA's appalling 95 RON "premium" fuel. Stuff like playing with closed loop boost control and really dialing in my transient fueling and ignition are frankly just to prove to myself I remembered something from uni.
