Gearbox Oil Leaking Out Of Shifter. Whats The Go?

Hey once again guys,

Changed my clutch on the 32 this weekend. Everything went sweet as until I drove hard for a lil bit and at high revs I noticed some gearbox coming out of the bottom of the shifter. (I left the rubber and console surround off just to get a look while driving).

Maybe I trucked up a seal when putting back the shifter?

Maybe this is normal and the boot catches all the oil and it drains back down eventually?

Its got me baffled!

I need a solution

Thanks dudes

Once the shifter is back in, put the boot back in place and then put a cable-tie around both the large and small ends of the boot. Zip em up as tight as you can and all should be apples !

Are we talking about an rb20 or 26 here? 'cause the 26 shifter has an inner and outer boot. Maybe you fingered the inner one? I think both the inner and outer boots are the same as in a VL commonwhore, so they should be cheap as dirt if you need to replace them.

      Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      Could it really happen......

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
