I'm tempted to swap a race auto into my R34 GTT, so i'm putting my whole manual conversion up as an expression of interest.

The gearbox is a R33 GTST 5 Speed, with a strengthened OS Giken gearset and all of the upgraded parts to go along with it (syncros, clips etc). The box is close ratio 1 - 3. Not sure if 5th has been changed. I bought the box from a reputable workshop in Melbourne who removed it from a customer's R32 GTST after only doing a few KM of road driving. I then put it in my car where it has done about 2500km of street driving and a few runs at the drags. Car has been running about 500kw whilst in my hands. Box has only ever run Redline MT50 oil. I will be perfectly honest and say that while the box is faultless in terms of gear shifts and smoothness, it does sound like it needs the input shaft bearing checked as it whines. This has never affected the box as I mentioned, but it would be nice to fix it up while the box is out.

I also have the clutch kit to go with as well. This includes an XTreme lightweight chromoly flywheel with a Jim Berry full monty clutch (r33 push setup). The clutch is less than 1500km old and hasnt had any hard launches at all as i fried the last clutch at the drags so ive babied this one. For anyone that hasnt driven a Jim Berry clutch, they are the lightest easiest to drive clutches by far. All the hardware was replaced with the new clutch, so new ARP flywheel bolts and Nissan pressure plate bolts.

There's also the rest of the conversion parts to go with. Clutch master cylinder with braided line and pedal. Clutch slave. Brake pedal. Center console and shifter. Front half of tailshaft. All to suit R34 GTT.

Everything listed above as complete package - $4000

or

Gearbox Only - $2800

Flywheel & Clutch Only - $1000

Conversion Parts - $400

    • Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
    • So....to find any R chassis part number, get your VIN (will be something like ER33-xxxxxx for you) and go to: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan and enter it. From there you have access to a web version of Nissan's part system, FAST. It is a bit tricky to get used to, so maybe have a shot and post up what you think.  You can also search by general model but note in some cases your car might have different options so VIN is safest.  On diagram 211 I got 14075-75T16 for Connector, Water Hose If I search for part 14053‑21U10 that you posted, that is also a water hose but not the one bolted to the plenum and 14075‑04U00 is the fitting where the water hose goes into the block.
    • Yeah now we are talking I much prefer coolers in the front middle because it lessens the chance of a small bump to a corner stopping the whole event. I was thinking the AT cooler can move out of the radiator, delete the AT/engine coolant interwarmer and mount a separate cooler with a thermoswitch somewhere further back as is common in racing, that would be one thing. Beyond that, the engine oil cooler is an obvious one to move to the wheel arch, potentially one on each side, but unused space is an issue. I did have a earlier pic with the bumper off but it doesn't show how busy the corners are: DS is full of the auto driving sensors and PS is totally fully of windscreen washer fluid reservoir But ultimately I was hoping to keep the AC, and the water/air heat exchanger is fundamental so it is not just the radiator that needs to be in front BTW here's airflow to the rad as it ran at the track (one horn is gone now and I'll remove the lights next time):
