i tried doing this with mine and it didnt work :rofl: so i sold the rsm and got a navara drive

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 that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
