Re: TD42 RWD
Been doong lots of research on the RE4R03A automatic tranmission. But.... It seems they need an ECU to operate. Are all the RE4R03A trans electronically controlled or are the earlier ones out of the 300zx or safaris/ patrols manually operated. What will haappen if i fit a electronically operated RE4...

Re: TD42 RWD
Been pulling my hair out today trying to work out how everything will fit. Im lucky to have lots of stuff lying around to measure etc. As much as i hate it i think im going to have to go auto for this conversion. Due to where the twin oil filters attach to the right hand rear of the TD42 and the fac...

Re: TD42 RWD
I want it to sit as low as possible with half decent driveability.
Dont want 4wd either.
Im sure sure the safari/ patrol is much wider than the terrano aswell.

Im hoping to leave the part where the pedals are in place and just move the area that the engine will produde into. I may yet be forced into going auto as there may not be room in the footwell for all the pedals. I had a quick measure up today and the TD42 is 800mm long from front pulley to where th...

Re: TD42 RWD
Thanks for the in depth reply mr crash.
Whats makes it more interesting is its getting a terrano body shell.
I am still looking down the path of a manual box but it will depend on where the gear shift will poke out. I dont want to be changing gears from the back seat

Re: TD42 RWD
Reason for a TD42 transplant over anything else is it will be a cool conversion and a bit of fun to drive.
I travel between 400 and 700 kilometers each week for work, often towing a car transporter.
So fuel consumption is important.
