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.

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      By Butters · Posted

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
