Im looking at importing a gearbox from Japan as r33 boxes have hit the 3k New Zealand mark now and am just wondering whether anyone has any idea on the dimensions and particular the height of one of these gearboxs.

Any help of even comparisons would be a great help.

Box would be a gtst box

Thanks

wtf 70kg?

umm i have a 34 which i believe is very similar and it probably weighs abit over half that.

My G/box was full of oil when I pulled it out, but it took 2 of us to lift it. I would definatly say that their 70 would be close to the mark.

Not sure exactly how much they weigh either, but mine also needed 2 of us to lift it so I dare say it would quite likely weigh 50-70kgs (much heavier than a 32 box which I could lift on my own).

      To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...

      Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.

      Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
