good to see there is still a VQ keeping that garage from being totally gaids.

Quiet in here today. people must be doing family shit eh?

Yeah, Evan & I have been cruising on our bikes; but we had a storm & had to come home.

Now he's recovering the ammo after a Nerf war...

Hey guys, just wanted to get some feedback on something I came across yesterday.

Went to check out a S2 Stagea in a local wreckers, was quoted $1500 for manual conversion kit. Box, clutch, pedals & handbrake.

I think this is reasonable, but would appreciate any comments.

Cheers,

Ian

yeah if that is complete (ie including console etc) it is a reasonable price. Could probably be done cheaper if you want to stuff around collecting all the bits seperately, but that could take a while

Console was an auto hack job, might take it and see if I can make one out of fibre glass, better still fix the hack job one with fibre glass so I dont have to destroy my own.

Hopefully I'll have this early next week at the latest, then the fun begins

In the words of the late BIG KEV - "I'm excited"

    • Think I found another reason to buy the Q50 rather than the skyline import, seems that unless you get the 400r the other models such as the GT miss out on the decent brakes and don't have the flappy paddles on the steering wheel to change gears. Its my day off work today and the Q50 listed @ the dealer in Brisbane that I mentioned in my 1st post looks like it sold as its listed as no longer available... Would have checked it out but can understand why it sold as it was a bargain price.
    • omfg.... That shopping list game. I'd hoped I'd never see it again.
    • There are fixes for this. In industry we use compressed air for everything. It is frequently wet, and many things cannot tolerate it. So there are various forms of driers available that you can install. The simplest option for something like this would be a dessicant drier. Much cheaper to replace some silica gel than actuator cylinders.
    • That's a solid update mate, well done at WA FOS. You may already know this, but the actuators on the paddle shift are a service item and are sadly not that reliable. As I understand it they collect water from the compressor (condensation) which then rusts the bores/pistons in the actuators. A mate of mine had no end of trouble with them in one if his circuit cars, apparently it's a 'known issue'. Buy a couple of spares at great expense to ensure you never have any problems with the ones you've got! Any clues about what the new WTAC rules might be? While faster cars are cool the Pro class arms race has got to the point where you wouldn't even bother entering without a $1m budget and even then I don't think you'd win.

You can see another picture of it here: https://www.alltranz.com.au/shop/drivetrain/automatic-transmission/RE5R01A/product/9305/ The 4 speed automatic in the GTT is Nissan corporate stuff. You can search up similar jobs done on a Frontier or Pathfinder with a RE4R01B to get an idea for what the internals are going to look like and the procedure like this:
