and whats hte majro differences.. strength wise.. double synchros? Diff ratios?

if anyone has any of these boxes.. please ring me on 04 10 756 872

thanks for your help :) much appreciated :)

Rb20 NA/turbo, rb25 NA, and RB30 NA boxes are basically all identicle except for small stuff like carrier bearings etc and the fact they have different internal gearing but the input and output shaft are the same and they are the same size internally. A VLT and rb25 turbo box are quite alot bigger than the NA boxes, in every way, thus they are alot stronger and they are also more expensive as they are sought after!!!

Basically get the RB25 box and it'll last.

Get the cheaper ones and sometimes your likely to have to replace it once or twice.

Remember RB20 boxes are old, and not-so-strong

RB25 are not so old... and a LOT tougher to boot.

    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
    • Hey all. I’m looking on replacing my speed sensor on my R33 GTR. Will the center differential need to be drained, and if so, the center diff uses ATF fluid D? I found information on the transmission, front diff and rear diff. Can’t find a for sure answer for the center diff. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
