Hey guys,

Been a long time since I have been in this section.

Now that Im making some serious power with more to come, I now have absolutely destroyed my RB20 gearbox, now some of you know I have a RB25 in my cef and I guess it was about time it went.

I have read through the forum and found bits here and there but what exactly is involved in getting a RB25 gearbox into a cef? How much do they go for these days and Is it really worth the upgrade considering I could potentially blow that one too? (I do know most of it is related to driving but Im not going to go easy on my car its what its there for :() Or better yet are there any alternatives?

RB25 boxes are getting dearer, i think about $1500 is the average pirce still, but they've been creeping up thanks to demand.

have a look at Pfitzner Performance Gearboxes (PPG) - they sponsor a few of the top drifters and make RB25 gearsets etc. no idea on price or quality.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.

      Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
