Use a gtr box. 33 clutch pedal 34 foot rest any man stag console a 33 e brake n ur done. There a wire you need to bridge too for it to start after

260 front bar. Give up.......now

[whitenight27]

yer how much dose a man stag console go for? and where can i get.

i am kinda removing the 25 for a 26 so prob not need to do the wire thing.

thats what every import place is telling me about getting a 260rs bar lol.

also how hard u guys think it would be to keep the auto with the 26?

i will need a custom loom and prob after market ecu as the 26 one will prob not be able to talk to the stock auto half

260 front bar. Give up.......now

I happened to find one. It's stored at my panel beaters as a spare... Woo!

[whitenight27]

haha no good to me there thow lol

Auto with an rb26DEtt? Don't bother. Get an R33 GTR box. You can use your auto console with a little adjustment - just need the gear lever and handbrake boots.

Bought my man console directly from Nissan. It ain't cheap: cost over $960, and that was leaving out the rear ashtray ($140) and the lidded console behind the shifter (I moulded my FC hand controller in instead).

This was a couple of years ago now, so with the yen weaker now than it was then, it may be worth giving your local Nissan dealership a call...?

[dirtyRS4]

ive seen s2 maual consoles go for around $500 on auction, nissan direct is always expensive.

imo the modded auto centre console can look ok if done properly and with patience.

[rb26stagea]

But what do you do about the handbrake?? I ran a modified auto console for a couple of years, but needed to jam the handbrake between the console and drivers seat: looked crap, and became a huge issue when I bought Recaros: manual console is definitely better...

[dirtyRS4]

here's an example

[whitenight27]

any info on how to modd it Jason?

it not look to bad at all

[whitenight27]

just wondering is the auto and man brake booster the same or will i need that as well?

[KiwiRS4T]

Brakes will be fine although I upgraded to GTR one (booster is the same just got GTR m/c) when I got the GTT brakes and now have D2s.

I'm actually working on something very similar for another member who is doing a manual conversion

I'll post pics once i have the manual console design finalized

ok cool cool thanks kiwiRS4T will do the m/c later when i do brakes.

sweet as Fgjoh i will prob have to get a s2 auto center console as the s1 is a little diff and will prob be harder to mod

iirc GTR and stagea bmc is a bm44 and bm50/57 are on GTR N1s brembo equipped, ive heard Z32 is bigger than a stag one but either is fine.

btw id take him up on the offer of that modded manual console as you will pay big $$$ OEM and will be lucky to find one second hand.

[whitenight27]

yer prob will do Jason as i not really want to pay a stupid price for a console.

was kinda hoping some 1 was working on a mod for a console that u could just buy and fit.

yer doing brakes later just getting parts together for the R motor.

have a s2 peddle box and clutch master cylinder coming soon.

what about the tail shaft?

will the auto 1 fit or is it like a Holden commodore and man and auto are different?

[KiwiRS4T]

Same drive shaft.

My m/c is a BM57 either 33GTR or Z32 TT

[whitenight27]

ok need to know been getting told by cred that the the auto tail shaft will not fit the gtr man. true or not?

also they are telling me that i have to change the tunnel wall and bit of the fire wall to make it all fit well.

was told that i cant just bolt in the motor and box fit the ecu and loom, hand brake stuff like that as it will just look all doggy and not work well.

and some thing to do with the awd censer wont sit right and not work right.

was trying to see about the auto staying in and they said need to get a s15 auto computer ( the 1 that runs the box not motor ecu) and put that together with the 33gtr ecu and loom.
