Well we were cumming back from coffs harbour and had just had apit stop, as we left we tried chirping the gears, we got a chirp into 4th then tried to get 5th and we got a horrible grinding noise and it wouldnt come back out of 5th.

So we eventually got it going and have tried for a couple weeks now to get 5th gear and the grinding noise has gone away and we can get it in and out of 5th gear with no hassel now, the car will de-accelerate wen the clutch is out in 5th but as soon as the throttel is touched is makes a massive griding noise and wont drive in the gear.

Any ideas?

Also i can get a r33 gtr 6 speed cheep what needs to be changed to get it to work in the 32gtr?

thanks tim

R33s dont run 6 speeds, only the R34 GTR does and they aren't cheap.

They are a Getrag box thats also in some M series BMWs and the Supra TT.

Housing will need to be changed but i dont know details, it can be done though.

Would be alot cheaper to rebuild your gearbox, or to buy a new one from a R33 gts-t.

As its essentially the same gearbox...i think.

I can get the 6 speed for a extremely low $4000.

yer i realised the misstake when i posted it my oppsey.

Got any idea what might of happened, i have a feeling it has broken a selector fork.

    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
    • Yes, well. Mine are less than half that. ARBs are not set to "dumb" either.
    • I would hope. But, we all know even the best companies have an issue sporadically.
