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?

    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
    • thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...
    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
