Hey guys, I'm wanting to sell a few of my gearboxes but I need to figure out first what they actually are and what engine they've come from. I have this stuff from a import wreckers that have now shut down due to wanting to retire and they didn't leave too much desciption on the boxes.

I bought a rb25det GTS4 engine which I soon learnt could only be from a stagea and the wreckers assured me that one of these gearboxes was fitted with it. The label on one of the gearboxes says r32 4wd:

You can see from the last picture the two gearboxes next to each other, the one in the middle is said to be the r32 4wd one.

Here is the other gearbox:

It may even be that the stagea gearbox is the same as a r32 gt4 gearbox, I'm not sure, I just want to make sure I'll be selling the right gearbox.

Hope someone can give me a hand with this as it is taking up room and I need them gone, it was already a pain in the ass to get them down with the forklift and sort them for photos so hopefully I don't need to take any more.

Cheers

I'm pretty sure its a rectangular sump, I've looked at the photos and it seems to be right, where would the bit thats sticking out be?

Also I forgot to mention that the second gearbox was actually listed as a r33 4wd gearbox, but so was the engine, and clearly the engine hasn't come out of a r33 since gts4's weren't turbos. Thats why I'm being a bit sceptical about whether they've gotten these 2 gearboxes right. I also have 3 other gearboxes, I'm just wanting to know whether they are turbo or not, all they seem to say is ca18, sr20 and s14 sr20. I'll get the pics up later on.

From what you can see, are the gearboxes identical?

ahhhhh anyone have an answer on these? I need to get them sold asap.

Another question whilst I'm at it, I don't know much about gearboxes (as you could tell), but there are square nuts on one side of the auto gearboxes, are they adjustment of shifting or something? Just curious as I have a nitro offroad monster truck <----- (display pic) and it has adjustabilty of shifting at certain rpms.

oh ok, thanks anyway for trying. Anyone else have the answers im after? I need the gearboxes outta the factory asap, but I first need to know what the gearboxes actually are.

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
