i would imagine is would be less than 400 to get it here...tell them to wack it on a pallet and get it couriered to your door. through someone like TNT or HI-TRANS or bluestar..something like that...

a whole car costs around 4-500 to get state to state so i can't image it would cost anymore than that.

Thanks for the reply's people. :P

The reason I was asking is because I can get a brand new gear box from advan in Sydney for $3000 and over here in adelaide nissan wants $3800 but will give it to me for $3400.

therefor if I can get it here cheaper than $400 , the change is in my back pocket not nissan's :w00t:

plus more money towards the clutch

:O

hmmm. thats expensive...have u considered going to someone like ppgearboxes and asking them what strong rebuild with yours would cost? thats alot of money...

To answer your question regarding rebuild cheaper option. You tell me what you would do if a new box cost's $3000 or just for the bearings it will cost $2600. The input shaft is making a racket and you need to get every bearing out to get to it. Plus I've been told redoing the bearing's might not get rid of the noise anyway.

By the way , the car does put out 297rwks and to rebuild properly with ppg would cost $9000-$10000 anyway or a holinger is $20000 approx

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
