2nd gear, 3/4 inner hub,1/2 outer hub dogs had the gear-set isf refinished, the pressure changing gears is almost like stock, so it was definitely a assembly issue that caused my grief

if you need a workshop to work on your skyline go To Trojan Motorsports, customer since 09 you cant beat them if your in Canberra.

updates, got my PPG dogbox back drives sooo much better
after about 500km i can drive it without issues around town all different speeds, best way to explain is it loves direct shifts, it really isnt that bad to drive and i have to say once i got used to it i almost prefer it to a syncro box.

if you are putting in a gear set, you also at the same time refresh all the bearings, seals and syncros and replace any damaged parts plus do the upgrade to 3rd gear syncro if required. some people go the extra step and get the gearset isf and shot peened. my biggest advice is you really need to find someone that knows how to build these box's and set's them up to have them last and hold together and not slapped in she'll be right.

Hi all from a long time hiatus i have been getting back into the old skyline scene, are there many new and old hang around's still active in the ACT.

years ago when my gtr had 240ish kw's and the hicas was operational running stock suspension, i could throw that thing around like a go kart it was amazing the handling and how well balanced it was. but once the hicas shit's itself and everything is worn how forget about ?
-
yeah it was a shame as I only did 500km's before I decided to pull it and check it out luckily as it would have caused more damage. I'm torn between building a o/s syncro box, and this dog box as I love the whine and dog engagement as when you get a good shift its just awesome at how fast and direct it is.

poor assembly, caused me to have shifting issues with the shifter coming out of the trans during high load shifts and even miss selected a gear a couple time when the shifter came out.. I'm lucky I didn't fold my motor in half

hey I have a ppg 5sp s/c gearset for sale, send me a pm
-
I'm in a bit of a interesting situation at the moment as well, I currently have a ppg 5sp s/c dog box in bits waiting on parts from ppg which may be upto a 3 month wait, so I'm torn on do I sell it as is or do I wait and fix it, out of all the options par seems to be best local option at the moment.
my questions is should I sell the gearset and buy something new or do I wait and fix it and give someone a good deal?
-
i would leave it as it, the torque from doing up the nuts will take the paint off no matter what you do touching it with some random shit paint will make it look worse.
-
well at least there is a couple still around
-
im still around
-
enough damage worth replacement, if the shop that was open that put it together they would be wearing the main-shaft up their backside
Parts needed: 3/4 inner hub, 1/2 outer hub dogs, 2nd gear
im looking to make a quick sale as i'm having another box built
Price Drop: 9,5k

PPG 5 Speed Straight Cut Dog Box For Sale
Hi all bit of a EOI currently have my dog box apart and tossing up selling it, it has traveled 500km's before i pulled it and had it dissembled due to some issues shifting which turned out to be due to poor assembly (I'm not naming the shop as they shut down a few years ago).
The Gear-set is currently out of the case and can be inspected, currently there is damage to one of the dogs, (i will update the damaged parts and upload photos this afternoon). Instead of slapping it together flogging it off I'm being 100% honest with the condition and what parts need to be replaced. As the dog box is currently a gearbox shop in Syd i have a few options which will vary the price.
PPG Parts List:
PPG GTR 5SPD S/C DOG - LARGE SPLINE
PPG GTR 5SPD BILLET MAIN SHAFT
PPG GTR BILLET SANDWICH
Price: $10,500 Neg PM if serious

formal and highly modified gtr who's forking out for the defects and all that pain if you get 'random' inspection letter

Wanted Nismo Gauges R33 GTR
Hi Guys
I know this isn't the wanted section, looking for a set of NISMO gauges for a R33 GTR -
skylines are a great car to learn how to drive and for a import there is a metric shit ton of spare parts ect, way iv seen it is GTSt and GTT are going down hill and GTR's are going up in value and development, and what's the point in having 400kw gtst that figure skates all over the road and when you go to sell it you have every time waster offering you 5k plus swaps for there bucket, a clean well put together GTR will sell and people are chasing them all the time, plus now the US is allowing them will drive the prices up and improve development for them even more.
after about 500km i can drive it without issues around town all different speeds, best way to explain is it loves direct shifts, it really isnt that bad to drive and i have to say once i got used to it i almost prefer it to a syncro box.
