I asked them the same thing, he said... Its the same as the nissan patrol box. You can go manual but would have to ditch the attesa. All wheel drive or Rear only. Of course then you would have to run a 350z ecu or full computer and loose all other sensors and cpus like abs? not to mention grabbing the clutch pedal bits from???

This gearbox should be able to handle heaps of power now and snap into gear, just like a manual. Im going for a higher stall too due to the slightly higher lag, If its anything like my mates XR6 box they just did, I will be very happy.

Patrol transfer case does not have a "on demand" setting nor a centre diff, so cannot be used on tarmac in 4WD.

I think that is what they were getting at.

Patrol is part time 4WD, Stagea is AWD.. gotta love a bit of marketing...

Whilst we are on how strong transmissions are, there is an off the shelf kit to fit Patrol gearbox and transfer case into a Landcruiser.. Apparently the LC transfer case is made of glass...

Spoke to Kyp at ATP today. My turbo is finished (as you would know Scotty) and was being delivered to R E tonight for refit. Kyp told me what you are doing Scotty - sounds great! Will post some pics up of the original damage to mine over w/e. Looking forward to getting the car back...early to mid next week i hope. :P

Now for the exhaust......off to that thread!!

do want a manual!

surely the 34 getrag would be able to squeeze in there somewhere

I went down this road a while back.....while the Patrol box was stong the 34 Getrag is probably the best option because it can handle the HP and Torque once you start tweeking.....it was also built as a sports box and we all know it will handle the MN35 AWD system. The only real problem I stumbled over was the bell housing.....everything else was pretty straight forward. The let down was cost.....if I could find a good one with the transfer case for $1,500 I would have gone for it.

Secret mens buisness apparently, no cameras allowed. :) I did ask for you.

I was going to get some pics of the car too, but theres not much of it left.

Heres a pic of the coilovers tho.

I would love to hear how you get on with these, they seem quite the bargain, if they're not too harsh.

The BC coilovers ceartainly look the part, I will fit them next week hopefully. Lots to do, I have to rebuild turbo, refit turbo, install trans cooler, ive got some heat shielding sheets to install on the inner guard and firewall around the turbo. Then fit the coilovers and get a wheel alignment. All this while the gearbox is getting rebuilt.

I need to fit an engine oil cooler also if I can find a cheapie. Speaking of which.. has anybody fitted one before?

I noticed the hose coming out of the filter block, can this be tapped into for the oil cooler? I hope so, it looks simple.

Scotty, that hose is from the radiator. The circular bit that your filter screws into is the OE oil cooler and, obviously, has coolant pumped through it.

Ok thanks mate. So I will still need a full oil cooler kit.

      Update time!  The JZX110 had some maintenance needing to be done, so a lot of the seals with replaced to fix some oil leaks. Also used this opportunity to whack on a front mount that I'd bought some time ago.  I also finally got the rear lip painted and fitted.  I then got the exhaust done. It's just a catback for now. Custom made 3" stainless with a turn down. I could have a tip coming out, but it will require cutting the rear lip and possibly the bumper itself. So far I do like and it's made the car a little more zippy.  Close out with some nice pictures of the cars and a sneak peek of what's next.

      This lady loved her FD for 25 years!  https://www.topspeed.com/80-year-old-woman-donates-fd-rx-7-mazda/ My brother in law. He's nice enough to let me drive it whenever. He'll likely not see this, but I'll try: @r-is-for-fun got any pics?

      Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
