Damn, that sucks. So I hafta get a new speedo cable with the plastic bit in one piece aswell. I've already ordered a AVC-R, haha, at least its a good boost controller, not just a speedo.

dunno bout that, i sold my AVCR also cause it didnt control boost for shit....

but yeah, i need a new plastic thingy for the cable also as mine has now broken... and you cant buy themk seperate from nissan, need the whole cable

Serious, I always thought AVCR was up there with eboost.

I've heard of people getting the plastic bit replaced with something stronger, was thinking of ways to make it myself but the hard part is getting it to fit back on the shaft (cable) because its got that bell shape around it so you cant get to it to make a slot or anything.

Simply have the yokes swapped and tail shaft balanced.

Take as little off it as possible. Remove ~12-15mm removing the old yoke and weld.

Mine and Salads was done this way fits fine. :nyaanyaa:

Balance and yoke swap is around $160. Get a couple done at the same time and its cheaper. :w00t:

hey everyone just a bit back to the origin of the post, i have got the navara sender and r33 cog, put them in the gearbox but it was a tight fit, didnt realise that the sender had to be rotated 180 degrees with a slit in the side and now its stuck in there real good, snapped off some of the thread trying to get it out. any ideas on how to remove it?

Spray WD in there and hope it helps the rubber seal to slide a little, then lever it out via the existing slot.

When its in correctly (180) its a fairly tight fit as the seal grabs if you don't use vaso or gearbox oil on it.

Nah, I'm getting a one piece made up with bigger replaceable uni's. Don't wanna risk using the stock tail shaft with 350rwkw's. Did anyone measure the distance or did everyone just cut, weld and fit?

Cheers

I've attached a pic of the rb25det gearbox sitting in the car and the rb20 tailshaft up against the dust shield.

As you can see the 20t tailshaft sits slightly inside the box; by the time you remove/cleanup/chop off the old weld and reweld the new yoke on the dust shield lines up perfectly with the rb25 yoke.

Don't take off any more than you have to otherwise the yokes dust shield section will hang outside of the gearbox dust shield.

Premo, i get my rb25 yoke on Thursday so i'll be getting my tailshaft mod done soon at the same place as joel and showza (adelaide tailshaft services) might be able to get them done at the same time, even if your doing yours a little different to mine.

Thanks for the offer but I'm getting a one piece made up, a bit bigger and stronger. While your getting the tail shaft made up could you measure the distance between the diff flange and the furthest point of the gearbox just so I can make sure the tail shaft I'm getting copied is the right length??

The one I'm getting copied is from an R32 with SR20 and Z32 gearbox so it should be the right length but I wanna double check before I go get it made up, my gearbox hasn't been delivered yet so I cant get the measurement myself. Or If anyone knows the difference in length of an RB20 box and R33 box I could work it out.

Thanks

Pretty sure I mentioned this in another thread.. when we had my engine out to put the new crank/bearings in, I put my stock tailfshaft up next to that out of a 32gtst with an rb26 and 25 gearbox, they were practically the same length minus the saw cut (~1.5-2mm).

Nice one, thank you.

Thanks Cube's for the pic, makes sense now.

Simon, check your PM's

    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
    • You just gotta be really, really, really clear and decisive with what you want your end product to be. 99% of people who want this conversion aren't "I want to run a 295 front tyre!" so they don't really need the widebody. They just want the OEM body to look a little less dumpy, so bonnet, bar, skirts job done with some camber, stretch, slam. It's when you want that, but then decide to pivot later you get big problems. See also if you're willing to get an all in one fibreglass bar, and you're willing to accept fibreglass problems like cracking the entire item on a driveway, instead of just a piece attached to the bottom, etc etc etc. Decide this all before buyin'.
