hi all. i just installed a new/secondhand gearbox in my gtr and i think its a os-cross mission one.

1st goes to 80kph!! clutch is not happy jan :lol: 2nd,3rd,4th all nice and close. 5th is normal i think. posibly slightly shorter.??

the first 3 gears make a nice whine sound. ive looked at the countershaft and there is no markings on it. i didnt check the input shaft but.

the only diferance i can see is on the countershaft the "machining" is nice and smooth and uniform, the 1st,2nd selector fork is abit narrower and diferand shaped.

anyone able to give me an indication what ive got??

ps.. what revs in 5th is 100kph for the stock one compared to the os one??

cheeres dave :lol: :lol:

Dave OS giken cross-mission boxes don't whine...or shouldn't. As they are a helical design synchromesh arrangement. You can't really tell with 5th either as the kits can come in 3 gear sets or 5 gear sets. The gears themselves have chunkier looking teeth (less of them with bigger cross section) and the countershaft has a smooth machining in between gears and shouls have OS giken laser etched on it. If its a full box you should see about 300rpm more at cruising speed 110 kph in 5th. Sounds like a OS box except the whine concerns me...you can't tell audibly the difference between ours and a stocker.

cool. thanks. buy whine i mean only slightly. not like a straight cut one.

looks like il get oily again. i should of checked it more carefuly before i filled it with redline oil. :P

what other peaple make helical syncromesh gear sets in japan?

cheeres

perhaps someone slapped it togeter without doing all the gear heights lol.

The 1st 4 gears in my rexies box r ppg helicaly cut with syncromesh, and it makes a "quiet" whine, so it may be possible u have some sort of aftermarket gearset.

its definatly not standard. heaps better and there is the usual gear noise(whine).

helicly cut. gears look chunkier. not by much. but noticable.(with a torch threw the drain plug)

1st is very tall. 2nd 3rd 4th nice and close. 5th seems normal.

the synchro selecter looks differant from the stock one. chunkier looking but not as thick.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
