Hi all,

Yet another part for you to spend your hard earned cash on......Transgo Shift Kits.

Since we share the same gearbox in the NM35 Stagea I thought I might offer you V35 guys with the autos that want a quicker shift this kit as well.

I currently buying the Transgo kit's from the US in batch's of 4 so I can reduce the shipping price.

Hey

Any chance of having this installed for the 250GT? Not too sure on the model of the gearbox, one thing's for sure, it's a 4sp not 5.

Whereabouts are you anyway?

Haven't done one but I am sure I can nail it....RE5 is harder!

I need the following info from you to see if I can find a kit though:

*Year of make

*motor

*If you can get the Gearbox model #

I think I have found the kit but I need you to confirm....It may work out cheaper for you.

In my 4spd, the 1-2 gear change is rediculously slow at full throttle, and if anything id just want to fix that one.

ive been looking at all the youtube vids of 35's with this kit.... $500 is a good price... and wouldnt mind one.. but CBF doing it myself at this stage

edit: this is an interesting thread to read ........

Edited by Deep Dish V35

so how much would these end up with a good group buy, and how hard is an install as i dont live in large city.

with the US dollar going up I have had to revise the price.

$250 for the labour including shipping both ways to metro areas via TNT(non residential).....so up to $50 worth of shipping.....anything over that is extra.

around $245-$255 for the kit.

So around $500 total installed.

Removing the kit is not that hard.....a little dirty but not that hard.

PM me for more detail.

cheers

I got my shift kit installed by Craig yesterday. I'll keep it brief, this is by far the best mod ever. I got it on my 350z and the difference is amazing. See, if you have an Auto transmission and wanna go down that way, modifying, pimping your ride, you will probably go to a pod filter first, then a exhaust, plenum spacer and bla bla... In short, forget all, do yourself a favor and get this kit, trust me, you will actually feel it, and 5 seconds later you got it, your jaw will drop, its worth a lot more than that $500 requested. Besides, Craig is a great guy, you have to meet him, you will improve your German as well :) lol Craig, you are the man!!! Thanks for this :)

By the way, as soon as I got some time, I'll post a video of it.

I have the Transgo Kit installed already and is definitely a great mod for the automatics, especially when using manu-matic gear changes.

Careful in the wet with VDC off...car can go sideways with a decent amount of throttle changing from 2nd to 3rd gear!

GTM Motorsports in Cali have these parts and you will not have to get them from Ebay.

They are part of the G35Driver forum

I am sure Sam would be very interested in expanding his market to Australia.

When you get a moment check out his web-site, if you havent already

My two cents

PART#:RE5R05A-HD2

    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road. 
    • That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 馃挭馃徏 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
    • Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?
    • I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
    • Well, I had an Edward Lee's special edition odo windback car/motor with a RB25DET S2 and I put down 372kW with a good amount of track abuse for 1.5 years before the ring lands decided it didn't want to stick around anymore 馃ゲ But probably didn't help I kept on smashing try limiter on the track and a few skid pans.
