Thanks folks,

Sorry about the whole "Tailshaft/Propshaft" thing. Trying to translate aussy english into Uk english can sometimes be challanging!

Shorten the tail/prop-shaft... Check....

Im guessing it's worth while getting it ballanced...

I would hope any decent shop would include that in the price...

ok asked for a r33 early model clutch slave cylinder today - was told there are 9 different ones - so more specific - i said suit rb25turbo roughly '93 model RWD... still came up with 2 choices - but the one he did offer me was $88! new

DD - you got a part number or anything or did u find there were 2 different ones - coz this guy wanted me to find vin#/chassis# to help define which one - but i told him its for a box conversion

thanks

update

box is bolted up - no modifying to the transtunnel and kept the standard crossmember but turned around (with spacers added)

getting the yokes swapped over on the tailshaft - pickup later in the week

ordered the r33 clutch slave cylinder - pickup tomorrow

HOPEFULLY it will be as easy as this!!! ;) should be finished by the end of the week :huh:

does anyone have the part number for the rb25 box slave cyl?

also, when changing from rb20 auto to rb20 with rb25 5 speed. what master cylinder can i use? only r32/ceffy/laurel? or wil a s13 one do the trick? or are they all the same?

cheers

shit i should've checked it when i bought it... :)

nissan dont give out part numbers for whatever reasons... but i ordered a series 1 / r33 / skyline slave cylinder - 93 model (early)

and i was given the correct one - i was told on here they're about $88 but the quote i got from nissan was like $110 - so i quoted the price and they actually did it for $88!!!

great information, so basically i need a series 1 box with yoke and things should be fine

someone has also informed me a nissan terrano or z32 yoke will work

im also a bit interested about the piece needed to make the speedo drive work, does anyone have a pic of this?

Its piss easy dude. Someone has pics I think.

But the actual cog bit, that goes inside the gearbox, the rb25 one should be red. You pull that off the rb25 electronic speedo gearing thing. Then you pull the one off the navara one, and somehow get the rb25 one on. Just the gear, not the metal spline thing.

Did you read the first page?

You need.

S1 RB25box and yoke

S1 Rb25 box clutch slave

Navara speedo drive (code is somewhere on here) -(pics are also somewhere on sau, might take 30mins of searching tho)

Custom/shortened tailshaft

Move the cross member

Modification plate

I seriously cant think of anything else we needed. While its out tho I would clean up or get a new clutch, and machine the fly and pressure plates back. Just saves on money. I would also put a cheap oil in the box for a month or so, cleans it out, and you dont throw away good money on good oil if the box is stuffed.

Good luck!

    • Does anyone sell a pipe that's made to go from the Greddy FMIC kit for ECR33 (RB25DET) to the Greddy intake manifold? 
    • Not that I know from experience, but in theory you'd want your gate spring to be as close to target pressure as possible, so you'd go with the higher gate spring?
    • Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?   Edit: Actually I might just swap the spring and see what the logs say after another few pulls, as we know it's still spiking without the Mac valve in the picture so I need more data without the Mac valve trying to combat the issue.
    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
