I did a search but couldnt find the original thread the link went to, probably lost.

Give Mike a call (number is on the first post) or email him at MV Automatics (think the address is in here somewhere or use whitepages.com.au) for specific information on hi stall torque converters or for more info on the valve bodies (they are a great mod and well worth the money)

just got off from work so mv should be closed. will try to call tomorrow before the weekends. just a question though if i install this shift kit would the bov sound still sound the same as i know it shifts much quicker between gears then my stock.

^^^ The quicker shifts won't effect affect the function/ sound of your bov. Unlike with manuals you don't normally lift from the gas pedal (closing the throttle) during shifts so the bov shouldn't open which means no sound.

Anyone had a go at installing one themselves and want to share? Difficulty level?

I recently had my trans serviced (ATF flushed and replaced) so dont want to fork out all that money again....argh.

I have access to a hydrolic hoist, all the right tools ect.

Honestly, this it quite easy just need to take your time and be very methodical about it. The little black box is also pretty easy to install, as long as you follow the instructions and again take your time. And even if you do got stuck give Mike a call.

The hardiest part is holding the new part up while doing up the bolts.

fitting a Stage 1 MV Automatics valve body at the moment, Mike's notes says to block off and remove springs for the middle 2 acumulators with welsh plugs, done.

But i seem to remember on a previous install that only 1 of the end springs goes back in, but in his notes it implies that both end springs are retained.

Anyone done an install in an R34 'b' box lately and can shed some light ?

thanks

Inline with GB rules about having a start & end date - this is now closed.

SAU is clamping down on these GB's that never occur, never end, and so on.

PM me if you have a problem. However, before you PM me think about this.

A group buy, is a group of people buying the product together to lower the price.

Buying single units here and there is not what constitutes a GROUP BUY

Thanks

    • Thanks for sharing. That's a great video! My buddy is doing the same thing on his build (S chassis struts and towers). He's building an S14 with billet RB30 shooting for 2000whp... a race car with a TH400 just like this video. For a road car I just couldn't go this route as the strut has to be almost vertical and the caster is not going to pivot correctly (let alone camber gain). You think the R32 frontend is bad, wait till you put a MacPherson strut on without modeling it all in Solidworks to check geometry. I'm not saying it's a bad way to do it but I'd be really curious to see how it affects the geometry.
    • Hey Christof and welcome!  Sounds like an awesome project! I'm not sure many of the regular users on here would know much about the HK but I could be wrong.  Looking forward to updates.
    • As long as its NOT a HyperSHITtune, youll be fine.
    • First time visitor and currently getting ready to start work on my HK Premier.  Its all stock, 186 with 3 on the tree.  The only mod i have right now is extractors.  I am hoping to get some guidance on slightly modifying the engine to bring a little more power. Just going for a nice, comfortable cruiser.  The car is very straight, however i have been out of the country for 20 years and its been gathering dust at a family farm.  Will be doing quite a bit of body work to cut out some small rust areas (frnt quarter panels and a few other small bits) and fix up the paint.  Will be redoing the interior (its currently black and the seats are in real need of recovering and respringing the driver side (its front bench seat).  The dash needs a little TLC, but no real damage.  As my heater has degraded I am considering fitting something after-market that will be both heater/AC (recommendations here are always welcome). Wanting something discrete that will allow me to use the same controls and not be obvious once inside the car.   For the engine, i have been told i could consider upgrading my cam (imagine i would need a new head as well) and putting a new carby (currently the original stromberg).  However not sure what is going to be the best route.  Would certainly welcome any comments/suggestions.  As  a final step I am looking at changing the wheels. Current hubcaps are in dire need of refurbishment or replacement (imagine its a bit like hens teeth).  Thinking of some clean/classic looking mags (7-inch should be more than enough - not going for a large change in look).  Welcome any comments/advice and of course any questions. 
    • I got the ARC M079 due to the space constraint.  Been running mint for the last 3 years.  Plazmaman also seems like a really solid choice but not used myself.    Hunt around for a better price but this is what I have - https://www.rhdjapan.com/arc-brazing-intercooler-smic-m079-bnr32.html
