hey guys thinking of putting a 25 box in the ceff

ok i know i will need a 25 box + tailshaft, is there anything else i need?

i know i will also need to modify the tailshaft to fit and i have heard a couple of ideas about 'bearbox' crossmember???? can be slightly modified to suit (whatever this is) and SLAVE CYLINDER????? also not bothered about speedo

Okay once again from the very VERY limited knowledge i have it is all a pretty easy swap but i think the 'yoke' needs to be shortened??????!!!

Good source of knowledge for conversions to Cefiro's is this site

d1nz.org.nz/forum

Since the Kiwi's get the cheaper RB20e auto versions 90% of the time they all are conveting them! :D

My useless 2c ahaha

Ando

no worries

also from my calls today - the 33 yoke is needed and keep the ceffy tailshaft - just needs to be modified

also all the gear selector etc is interchangable from what i've been told

can also use rb20 gearbox crossmember

possibly need the transtunnel 'massaged' a little wider...

Ok I've had it done.

Transtunnel is fine. Dont need to touch it.

Obviously clutch, fly wheel etc all the same.

You will need an R33 clutch slave, I got mine new from nissan for $88.00.

Yes you need the R33 yoke, then you need the cef tailshaft, the idea would be to shorten this. However if your center bearing is stuffed like mine, then you might want to look at getting a 1 peice shaft as this is cheaper than replacing the center bearing apparently (lighter also, so you get back some of that extra weight of the gearbox + less rotating mass)

Rb20 cross member is fine, we just moved mine and put some spacers in. You might need an engineer to look at this to make sure its legal. Mine is actually mod plated.

The speedo... You need your red gear off the R33 speedo sender (the one that goes in the gearbox) this then needs to be attached to a navara speedo drive (32702 - 02G17 pinnion assembly), should be about $22-25 new from nissan, this then connects up to your speedo cable like normal. Just test it tho, should be pretty accurate.

Get some of the seals replaced on the box if they need it. You REALLY dont want oil leaking on to your clutch.

Get your fly wheel/pressure plate/clutch all checked out while the box is out. I had to replace mine that was a cost I didnt allow for.

And why does the gear selector matter? Wouldnt your RB25 box come with one? I dont belive we used my RB20 one.

But yeah, once its done your more afraid your crank is going to snap in your poor little rb20 than your gearbox :)

thats exactly info i needed thanks heaps DD :domokun:

gearbox i'm getting has got yoke etc - clutch was just fitted recently also .

now the hunt is on for a r33 clutch slave

and if its that cheap to get speedo working i'll do that aswell :) - just gotta make sure that red thingo is there

whats it look like? and where?

thanks again - awesome info

Yeah dude, just go down to nissan and get the slave $88 cant go wrong.

OOOH!!!

BIG BIG BIG ONE!!!

You MUST get an S1 gearbox. If you get an S2 your going to have a LOT of stuffing about. The clutches are different (ie one pull ther other push)

AWSOME Article DD... this needs to be stickyed in the parts list of these forums...

shame u didnt type it out when i needed it 4mths ago ;)

Hehe, dude thats prob when mine was getting done :rofl:

hey, im doing the opposit of you guys in a way. im putting a r32 rb20det in to my rb20e powerd r33. i have the electric speedo. what i have been told is that i need the r32 gtst drive gear. what does it look like and where does it go?

cheers

LUCKILY i got an early model box with push type clutch ;)

When fitting the R33 gearbox, what modifications are you guys doing to the propshaft? We are putting an RB25DET engine and box into my cef and where wondering what the deal is?

Is there a propshaft that fits? Or do you need to make one.

Regards

Chris

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
