1) Location ; Northside Brisbane.

2) Price ; $450

3) Detailed item description ; This box is in excellent condition it has been in my car for about 3 months now, when i bought it i got a recipt for the refresh it had (syncros, seals) but i've lsot that now.

This box has close gears, much closer then a standard 5 speed, would suit someone rallying perhaps?

The ratios are nice and short but as soon as i got onto the highway it was revving a litle to high,

I just picked up another box today as i'm more of a highway cruising person.

Comes with shifter/all sensors does not crunch gears at all this box is in VGC, anyone interested has probably a couple days to see it driving in the car as i'm pulling it out thurs/fri.

4) Contact details ; PM on here, i visit the site every day.

Posting this for my house mate.

With my 3.7' gears, it was at 3000rpm in 5th at 100.

Not sure what they are at all, here is a estimation of each gear keeping in mind the rb30 revs to about 5500rpm (safely) and yours will rev moer if you have a twincam.

1str, 48km @ 5500

2nd 93km @ 5500

3rd 125km @ 5500

etc etc.

      What accelerator cable can be used with greddy plenum

      By Duncan · Posted

      I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
