well i have a friend with a GTR 33 who has them, but damn dude idd get that if i was you. that gearset is f**ked up good, the consitant harsh engagements that you can make with it. he has about the same power that i have but the way his car moves with that gearbox, damn

The Trust dogbox is arguably one of the worst dogboxes on the market. The RacePace MotorSport 33 GTR lunched 2 gearsets before going to the OS Giken Cross Mission (synchro) box for trackwork.

I know of another R32 GTR that smashed the Trust box on the strip with 450rwkw.

If you're going to run a dog box, go the PPG or if you can afford it, just go with the Hollinger.

i have a second hand fully rebuilt (tightened, dogs re faced, and more tightening) for sale if you want.

i'm asking 5000 ono.

They are actually an alrite box, If like all race type transmissions taken care of and servaced on the regular..

i have had words with the people who actually make them, Quaife in the uk, and he has ran one in his gtr for a long time! and hasnt had problems at all.

Actually I broke it 5 times.. ;) Worst part is you don't even have to try too hard to break it. Broke a different gear each time too,(even the input gears!) so its not like just one gear has a problem. And every one I know of that has actually used one has busted it..They are plain and simply not up to the job!!

i have about 500ps. 2.6L apparently when you go to increced torque they dont like it. increaced displacment is the main cause of this.

tho never had a problem with it untill it selected 5th and 6th and snapped the lay shaft.

this was a problem with them not bieng serviced and tightened.

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
