Hey guys, getting my R34GTT auto converted to manual, i decided to rule out doing it with a mate, so i decided to do it at a specialist. does anyone know any good places to do it? and has anyone had any bad experiences after having a conversion done, and an approximate price would be good. just sick of having the auto and Im too attached to my car to sell it for a manual =)

Have you spent much money on the car yet?

it just seems like too much trouble for little gain on my daily drive.

What do you guys do to the box to make it handle that kind of power?

I've already done the shift kit.

do you do any clutch pack etc strengthening? or just torque converter upgrade?

I've still gotta figure out how to get out to you guys to get nistune done... damn friends selling their cars and shit

we can build your auto up to handle that power.

Put a good converter in it.

    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
    • But if you had to go bury a body in the forest, would you not put that in the boot? Most of them are >=90kg these days.
    • That could easily make a horrible noise. +1 to the benefits of: a) Disclosing all relevant information when asking questions such as these, b) Actually going out and having a look at your own car, seeing as you're the one there, and we're not!
