Ok guys i have my car recently built to 600AWHP spec, but i dont think the stock gearbox will hold up so im rebuiliding my gearbox completly with the OS Giken Crossmission gearset, plus evry cam in the box is going to be raplaced with new ones and all fluids will be changed using castrol synthetic fluids. and i want to change all the diffs on the car, for the rear i got the NISMO GT diff and for the front im thinking of getting a cusco 1 way. i would like your input on my setup regarding the OS giken crossmission gearset, and to what extend i can abuse this gearset (read: how much power can this gearset take)

Leewah's GTR had 604awkw's (800AWHP) and used the OS gearset and it never broke.

Just about everything else broke - but the gearset is still good.

Ben from Racepace also use one in his 500awkw track car. Previously I believe he did bust a Trust 6 speed dog box but hasn't had any issues with the OS.

I PM'd leewah regarding his set-up and he said this

I've got the whole 5 speed kit which includes the billet main shaft, billet output shaft, and billet sandwhich plate.

So he purchased the optional billet parts which is why he hasn't broken it yet.

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
