Hey everyone

I've been looking into getting a OS Giken gearset for my 32 GTR due to me stripping 4th gear because of stuffed syncros.

Afew questions for anyone that has had personal experience/knows about them.

What is the difference between the Hollinger type input shaft and the standard one? Which should I go for? Benefits?

How strong are these gearsets?

Can you change gears quick with them? Or do you have to baby the shifts?

I've also read that you need some other parts. What parts are they?

Thanks for your help

David

Thanks for the input fellas.

Im still judging up on whether to go for this box or another standard one.

Does anyone know the difference between the Hollinger input shaft and the standard one?

What parts are needed from Nissan as i can get trade price there?

Lastly, What shop would you recommend in the Sydney area to put the gearset in?

Thanks again

i believe the clutch spline is different for the Hollinger shaft. We run an OS in our 9 sec drag car (see latest HPImag)

Award Gearbox and diff at rydalmere are the OS gearset guru's. Terry does our box and is very experienced with them.

Thanks for the info Paul.

I might have to go and visit them to ask them some questions.

    • Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.
    • Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.
    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that
