would the rb26 bolt up to the GT-4 standard 5 speed? how good are these boxes from factory??

thanks

Yep, direct bolt in. The are the same box out of the r32 and r33 gtr, but run the push config clutch. Should be quite tough (as tough as a gtr box is :thumbsup:)

What? Jason told me your car was still in the workshop... sucks that you got defected, though I'm hardly surprised...the car doesn't exactly fade into the traffic with that kind of presence!

Let me know if/when you get it back on the roads and I shall bring my stocko down and have a chat sometime.

Jason Nottle, used to be at Minisport, now at ETSA with me, he's building a weapon of a 1600, lime green + SR20.

Had a look over your car at the Extreme Horsepower Show, once again I was tempted to go for a JDM street racer styling lol.

Arr yeh, know him from school.

I'll update this with pics soon but the engine is here as of a couple of weeks ago. Have basically stripped the intake side down, replacing all heater hoses and gaskets. Will be putting the stock engine in just to get it engineered with it in and building a 30 on the side.

Well the 26 Is here and slowly getting worked on by me. Found out it has a nismo clutch and flywheel which wasnt in the description on the yahoo page :happy:

Have taken all the plenum off and heater hoses, which will be getting replaced with Black silicon hoses :). Theres a small crack in the plenum i need to get welded up to.

I manage to purchase a whole heap of stock parts of a member on here, just so i can get it legal with the engine in while getting the 30 built in the mean time.

Parts include

-Stock Radiator

-R34 GTR vspec 2 Turbo's + dumps

- Vspec 2 ECU

- Intercooler

- Injectors

- Piping

Now that the engine is here i have realised just how many small parts i need which will all add up

Havent really found out how hard it is to make it legal yet but will be making sure it is.

Brakes have already been doing to 34 GTR items so im hoping thats it.

i saw you have a carbon boot lip, just a quick one where did you get it and do they make the roof lip spoiler too? iv looked on origin's website but nothing for a r34, any help would be great

    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
    • To be fair - you see the same thing for every clutch. There's always someone making an installation error.
    • Just saw this, redacted names. It's on a R33 GTS-t Facebook group. Looks like still teething issues.
