R32 Auto G/box

[FATAZZ]

i have a 89' r32 gts-t with a RE4RO1A auto gearbox

2nd gear is slipping so bad its not there anymore

i was quoted $1750 for a rebuild of my box. but that wont last very long.

the 2nd gearbox guy told me to ask this...

has anyone fitted a RE4RO3A gearbox in a r32 auto shell?

(i think their auto nissan patrol gearbox's)

Why dont u think the rebuild will last? Is that with kevlar items?

If its any help the RE4R03A is used in 300ZX-TT & that has a slightly larger casing than the RE4R01A which also is used in the 300ZX non-turbo version. So, you might just have to measure up.

this particular gearbox specialist i spoke to doesnt use kevlar,i mentioned 'kevlar' to him and he laughed,said it slips and rolls up.

he has something better he says.

is the lenght of a 300zx Twin Turbo box the same external length & diameter?

not too concerned about it bolting up,just if it fits up under the car?

[FATAZZ]

so no one has put a RE4RO3A behind a rb20det?

do R33 automatic boxes bolt up and work on a r32?

to 1. doubt it.. personally i think rb20 and auto is a very poor combination due the lack of revs but your call there.

2. should do.. they are same RE4R01A box.. look on any build plate of an r33 if you are unsure

Mate if needed I have a S14 auto gearbox for sale, I was told that its the same as the skyline auto box just different bell housing... (not 100% certain) but yeah its in great condition.

Pm me if your interested!

i was told to steer clear of the RE4RO1A as the clutch size is so much smaller then all the other RE4 g/boxes...

does anyone know if this is true?

[xr8eater]

the R33 box is the same but the spedo is electric not cable driven

thanks anyway as i was looking for a cheap replacement.

but now am rebuilding mine,only just got the box out so i will

know more about whats going in soon.

so far i know the band for 2nd gear was snapped and i think

he said 4th was too.
