yea looks like the glide is the way to go... i have found someone whos done it a few times so il run the engine in and get the box done and see how it pulls up, hopefully i dont leave half of it at the start line

I have 1/2 completed a TH400 conversion for a previous customer. PM if your interested or need help.

Hey Jules, I can highly recommend the Mexicans work, I have used at least a dozen of his transmissions and not only never had a problem but had more help than possibly imaginable. Its a shame you hate manuals now, they make a liberty bell housing now and a box that bolts straight to the transfer case. I highly recommend talking to Mark Jacobson about his driveline mods to handle the 1500hp it makes, as it doesn't seem to break too often. 6BOOST

so there are transfer cases to make glides, t400's and jatcos AWD?

Good thing about this trans for the street is when u shift of flick the switch into OD aka overdrive the trans, automatically locks the converter from the oiling system. When u give it the LU aka Lock up automatically disengages. Goran from GZM build's them but not sure for a GTR but im sure he can.............

Yea im looking at getting the ball rolling asap. Have spoken with him and we are starting to rock and roll!!

black r32 gtr up your way somewhere has nissan box behind, runs 8's. copy him

naaa... hes going 8.9 160mph... i got a heap of info about that box from the builder himself and i wasnt prepared to spend the money for what you get...

Isn't it funny how you can completely adapt a new (stronger) transmission for less than the cost of a bunch of factory parts that go together? I guess some figure its better to make less sales at 100% profit or more sales at 25% 6BOOST Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

What box is in that one? I'm doing one at the moment for a mate of mine with a RE4 should be ready mid Feb.

RE4 i got quoted over 10k for the box alone... for probably less money ill have a pro mod glide holding 2500hp WITH A COMVERTER

Quote: Originally Posted by KIL-351 [View Post] RE4 i got quoted over 10k for the box alone... for probably less money ill have a pro mod glide holding 2500hp WITH A COMVERTER It'll only take a 1-2 cars like yours exploiting how easy the conversion is as well to render the RE4 useless at the price asked for it. I found the price quite rude to be honest, I know how much auto's cost to build 6BOOST Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

time will tell but im sure craid and paul will build a killer box.. converter is going to have to be tight like a nun.... direct port gas kit has been ordered from the states.

What are the plans for the car Julian? Are you chasing a certain time?

6BOOST & KIL-351 Is it BMS that want 10k for box alone???

id rather not say to be honest.... all i know is the margin of profit would be 300% +

Quote: Originally Posted by KIL-351 [View Post] id rather not say to be honest.... all i know is the margin of profit would be 300% + Oh no Jules, they have to recover development costs you see As far as I am led to believe from others that have done the conversion the only custom parts in the box are output shaft to the transfer case, and the obvious like custom valve body and machining for more clutch packs etc. To their own detriment anyway, both you and I would have already ordered one at $4500 or so, and thats just of those people involved in this discussion. I'm gonna wait for Pual to do a RE 4 seed for the GTR we are building, but it won't be anywhere near as insane as yours 6BOOST Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

im going to make sure this glide gets a workout.. direct port gas kit from the states is on the plane for me this gtr will be every bit as streetable as my vl was before the clutchless julz spec anti lag = 50 shots on the steering wheel for the low down rpm should see the power curve look pretty vertical past 10000rpm Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
