As I understand it, there is a whole lot of wiring and circuit boards to be made up for these to work. You need the electronics to go with it or it won't function like the BA does.

Just had a look at mounting the BA selector in the EF and it aint going to go in the EF console without perhaps cutting the body and recessing it or a major rework of the console.

Nice R31 mate! Turbo R31's are a good package.

Thank's Justin, it was intended to be just a work runner, but as it ALWAYS happens, i get inspired and because all my mates have parts plentiful for the RB30, i went weak haha.
Twason, here's a picture of that cover off the bottom of the shifter asm. and the bottom of the shifter itsself. Im just trying to decide what part of the shifter we can cut, i just don't want to make the whole structure weak. |

Just seen whats involved with the installation into ESeries by GHIA5L and it involves cutting the trans tunnel to drop the shifter and creating a metal housing around it - you won't need the bottom cover. The shifter assembly gets some short back and sides as well. Then there is the EF/EL odd shaped shifter opening to deal with. At least with the BA transmission the cable installation is easy.

I only skipped to page 13, going offline shortly
From the PDF --> The metal box thing that holds the shifter housing (and blocks out heat/roadnoise from below) should provide all the dimensions for how big a hole you need to cut into the trans tunnel. There's multiple photos of it and scans of my rough drawings on graph paper. Cheers

No worries at all mate! See www.r31skylineclub.com for inspiration. There are some pretty sick cars on there and they are a good bunch of guys. |

Already onto it Justin haha! Also Skylines Australia.
I havn't even got the Fairmont back yet and already i'm modifying the 31! I scored an RB20DET powertrain (complete engine and turbo, gearbox, wiring, ECU) for $500! |

Auto or manual, I'm assuming auto for the price? As far as conversions go, this as about as easy as you'll get, so have fun! |
