Easy fellas dun make us delete the thread.

Can you provide any linkage to the supra shifters (hint: supraforums.com)?? Maybe then ppl can see what the function of the shifter is.

This is actually quite an amusing thread.

"I want a sequential shift coz its quick" don't want to use the clutch either. I want to be able to change gears really fast so I can drag race.

Why not fit an automatic transmission then ? Autos are for wankers that cannot drive properly. But I am prepared to spend really BIG dollars to have a manual box that shifts like an auto.

Hehehe, its a strange world isn't it.

lol manual H pattern car - manual gear shift - clutch = auto with 5 gears...

the guy does have a point.

I've heard a few mates who adjust their gear ratios on their auto's to get better times on the drags than most manuals. But their transmission gives em a powerloss and weight disadvantage.

If you have a non AWD R32 and wanna improve your shifting fit a GTR or GTS4 shifter in it, its around the same size (so Its not shorter) but the throw is much smaller. Cost = $50.

Usuckpoo (interesting call) you are just not seeing this are you?  If you actually read the text on my posts, you might understand what I am saying??  Seems like Ureallydosuckpoo as you are making a bit of a dick of yourself.

I'm not going to be the source of your cheap entertainment.  I have more important things to do.

This post was a simple espression of interest, nothing more.  

For the record, I own 4 companies and don't suffer fools well.  So as a matter of fact, I DO have a real GTR V-Spec, so don't patronise me.  

Now,  for everyone else who's had something useful to say (that is every contributor to the post except Mr Poo), thank you for your honest points of view and thoughts.  I do greatly appreciate your time experience.

My question posed to you was not a rhetorical one meant to insult you, rather an entirely valid one imho

You seem to paint the impression in your previous posts that your interest in the shifter was not for its fucntional properties but more for its novelty and that similar peer or public interest in the shifter was a driving consideration. Further you choose to cite the analogy of "who really needs a skyline when all of us can drive corrollas" I just asked if these were the compelling factors that led to the choice of your vehicle, since they seem evident in your interest in the shifter.

That said, please do not huddle insults at me.

Why the need to mention that you own 4 companies and such? Does that make you more of a person than the rest of us? Does tat render me a fool because i do not own such assets?

Cheers

    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
