thanks for that.

Want to get a couple of quotes to see if its worth rebuilding r32 box or put in a r33 box.

- Patrick

not worth it just drop in the 33 box. s2 if possible.

HAHAHA ! HAAAA ! ! Try getting one ! ! well, they're out there: $1750 from the ONLY wreckers in Melbourne Who've got one, $1400->1700 privately, if You don't mind pot-luck . . . . (That's not a shot at anyone, just the nature of 2nd hand stuff)

Got a quote from All Wheel Drive Gearbox Reconditioners;

-------------------------------------------------

- Remove & Replace gearbox - $400

- Bearings and seals - $1200

Strip clean and inspect gearbox

Remove and replace bearings and seals

Re-assemble

Any Required parts (syncro etc) no labour incurred

Syncro's (if needed) are $500~ from Nissan, so looking at $2100 total?

-------------------------------------------------

Will drop by 360gearbox tomorrow and see what they have to say...

If i get a r33 gearbox for $1500, how much it cost to put into car driveaway?

$400 to remove/fit + extra's to make it actually work? ~ $2000 total?

Cheers

Patrick

$400 is too much just to remove & replace! $250 will cover it easy. Either that or they have no experience with skylines.

Thanks for the link wes81!

Interloper, they have a big sign on their workshop saying they specialize in GTR, WRX and all Japanese vehicles lol. Only saw 4WD's though..only went to them for a quote+free drive test. Might give them a miss as they didnt seem dedicated to japanese cars. I guess they needed to fill a blank wall on their workshop with some writing :happy:

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
