Hi all, i have a r32 gtst that i have fitted a r33 style rb25det gearbox to. the r33 has a electronic speedo whereas the r32 has a mechanical drive. is there a way around this as the r33 type speedo drive is much longer than the r32 type. is there one out of another car i should be using??

has anyone else performed this conversion?

use red cog off bottom of r33 speedo drive. Get a 32 gtr speedo drive. Cut buff coloured cog off gtr drive, install red r33 cog onto gtr drive. screw in r32 speedo cable.

Done.

Ive done a post in the past, i'll try find a link.

photo below shows red cod of r33 speedo drive installed onto r32 gtr speedo drive on left. On right is std gtr speedo drive.

You can actually buy them from Lincorp Automotive for $100 delivered. The part has the R33 gear for the gear box but uses the R32 speedo drive. They did, however, send me the wrong one, so i had to swap the gear off the R32 speedo drive. Pretty easy to do. Speak to Tim 02 96845777.

Stuff paying that much!

Go get a nissan navara one for $20-25 brand new. Do the exact same thing as Bl4cK32 said, just with a drive that is new, and a lot cheaper! Part number = 32702 - 02G17 pinnion assembly.

If you dont already know you will also need a new clutch slave cyl, you will need the R33 one that matches your gearbox.

Now as I have just saved you money, please forward $25 to my account :P

I am a little confused by this..

In this pic I have a R33 GTST drive at the top and a 32 GTR drive below

the thing that confuses me is that the gears are oriented differently, is this going to work if i swap the drives?

32702 - 02G17 pinnion assembly this part is the same as vl turb it has the wrong number of teeth ex japan from nissan change the 17 on the end to a 21 and there u go now anyone out there find this usefull please send me some cash it took a lot of buying of holden and nissan parts to find this out ah yes i have a r33 turbo bot in my 32 and my speedo works and its bang on accurate 21 tooth std 21 tooth replacement

So can we clarify that the combination of drives i was going to use as in the piccy is not going to work?

They are both 20 tooth

Im interested also!!

Yes, it will work. The R32 speedo drive is on top of the output shaft and the R33 speedo drive is below the output shaft. So the teeth have to be cut for the reverse direction.

:happy: cheers :O

I am also still confused. Neo is saying the part number ending with 17 is incorrect and it needs to end in 21, hence 21 teeth as this number of teeth he says will make it accurate. But what has how many teeth on the end of it got to do with anything as isnt the idea to cut the gear off anyways?

Or have I missed something?

Looking up Nissan part numbers and specs the 32 GTR sender has 20 teeth whereas the 32 GTS4 has 21 teeth. But as I said it dont really matter does it?

Or has Neo not used the 33 cog and installed the Navara 21 tooth sender assembly complete and unmodified? I need to order a sender this week and want to make sure I get what is required. I will give this Lincorp a call as well and see what he has to say.

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
