Hi Guys,

Im about to do some serious upgrades to my s15 aiming at atleast 250rwkw and i know that my 6sp box will turn to cactus as soon as this is done and im too poor to go par/dogbox and i dont want to throw away 1300 on a new clutch/fly to go on the 6sp and then get a new box anyway..

i dont really know that much about skylines but i hear that the series 2 r33 box is good for around 700hp which seems pretty much ideal. fyi the clutch im getting is made by orc

so the questions that i have are:

are there any 6sp rwd gearboxes for skylines?

r33 series 2 vs r34 neo? which one is better etc..

upon buying the gearbox what else will i require? i know ill need the housing modified and a new tailshaft

is there anything i should look out for while im doing this?

how will this impact the s15 diff?

sorry for all the questions

many thanks

no

34 is reportedly better and stronger , but rarer and more expensive .

is there anything i should look out for while im doing this?

they are hard to find cheap or they are expensive when found . obviously try and get a good condition low km one

how will this impact the s15 diff?

should be fine

thanks a bunch for the info arkon

question on the 34box- how much is expensive?

and also is it just the housing and tailshaft that needs to be modified?

with the housing is that something that can only be custom made and not something that i can buyas a part?

recomended places in vic to do such things?

quick update:

buying a brand spankers r33 series 2 box for 3k

will need to get gear stick so might as well get a short shifter.

modified housing. maybe a r33s2 tailshaft or vl depending on availability and custom cross members.

can anyone in melb recommend a good place to get this done?

also as far as clutch goes. orc vs os? thoughts and opinions pls

the gtr or the gtt?

can you tell me anything else about them? like i dunno how much they can take? or maybe even where to get one?

the 350z also comes stock with a 6sp box and that also 200+kw engine...

meh this is becoming a real headache... coz i dont want to break my stock box

quick update:

buying a brand spankers r33 series 2 box for 3k

brand spankers as in brand new never used ? from nissian ?

and do they have anymore ?

i would just get that box or another one like it . the r33 box is a really nice gb . its an immesurable improvement on your s15 one .

jspec racing hehehe

anyways..

I have a R34 GTT Gearbox, picked it up for $1500, with 17,000kms on it, i thrash the absolute crap out of my car, and this box loves it (200rwkw)

if you can afford $3,000 for a new one, get a gearset for your s15 box, would be the same price or around that and less f**king around.

just an idea

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
