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

    • Rear doors central locking wiring removed and cleaned. See the first 8sec video of when it’s filled with river silt. its a snip of what I’m up against. front and rear doors complete now. Maybe another day removing carpet and bits and pieces. Then the re assembly begins. 🤙 att.DqweJqhY5MZiZYQDVMhn3LtvdD1RBZ7TBG4f2s7W1zM.mp4 att.lFuN22MZEowqCbFAXoDw009r2gHL76ChMVfxMfBX-uk.mp4
    • There aren't boost creep issues, it's not engineered around the restriction of the cats but if you haven't tuned the engine a full decat + exhaust can flow enough air to run off the end of the OEM load scales and you will get a pretty substantial reduction in ignition timing as a result. I recommend using DFCO, avoiding ignition cut limiters, and avoiding popcorn tunes along with running a cat unless you enjoy a perpetually soot-covered and potentially burnt bumper.
    • Small update, it's been slow moving over the Christmas period with money having to go everywhere thats not my car 😅. I got myself a little present to myself from "santa" in the form of some tidy radiator mounts from fitmint automotive to get rid of the stock ones that look like they have been in an accident before and then straightened by a caveman. I know I should've replaced the rubber bush at the same time but I had no idea how bad they were until I was replacing the mounts. Decided to order their dash mat while I was at it as I feel like I am lucky enough to have a pretty decent condition dash and I don't want to risk it being ruined while it's parked in the aussie sun while I'm at work. I have found another electrical fault to add to the evergrowing list to eventually chase down. Every time I replace my taillight globe it blows within a day of use, I'm starting to think my life would be easier if I took a few minutes to learn how to use  a multimeter 😂.   Had some luck with finding a series 2 drivers headlight on marketplace to replace my mismatched series 1 headlight, a subtle difference but it's nice to have a matching set of lights now.   I returned to the air con problem due to being sick of this summer heat, found a good condition condenser to replace my leaking one! I got it in the car and was happy when I got the thumbs up that the system was now holding gas. Sadly the compressor is not kicking in for some reason, we even tried branching the relay in the fuse box. I have tried to do some research on the issue with no clear understanding of what the fix is, so for now it will be placed on the backburner until I can be bothered to look into the wiring to the compressor. The last small mods I have done was cutting the horizontal vents out of the front bar, not really in a functional airflow sense but I just think it looks better as I am not a fan of the series 2 bar. I also switched the shift knob out for a hosoboyo aluminium grex style one, it has a really nice more direct driving feel than the outdated rubbery oem one. Thirdly, I chucked on one of the ebay bonnet strut kits. The fitment is decent and they seem to work fairly well. They have only given out once while the car was parked facing downhill, I think if I was working under the bonnet I would still put the oem hood stay up to be precautionary as to avoid getting a speedy concussion.
    • Got pneumonia, haven’t played with her in a while, but I’m back now. Previous owners cut bonnet pins into the bonnet. My choice try find a replacement or spend $15 get some pins myself to cover up. Now only one small hole to cover. looks shit now, but when the bonnet is red again. Be good 🤞
    • No R32 GTSt had 15" wheels. 205/55-16 was standard GTSt fare. 4.36:1 is standard R32 turbo auto diff. I think the manual was too, not 4.11. 4.11 and 4.08 were R33 namual and auto respectively.
