Any work done to the Gearbox?

driving in sydney traffic slowing down for lights was in 3rd gear went to change to 2nd but couldnt, was jammed in 3rd gear, forced it out with a fair bit of effort, drove back to coast from sydney and 3rd gear crunches like no synchros.

drained gear oil and found the 3 little doobies that hold and align the baulk ring, synchro to the gear.

can either drop price and sell car as is or get a 2nd hand box put in...

Dude that is an awesome looking car but i dont think tyre walls would go very well with it.

Just picked up a 2nd hand 32GTR box from a front cut with stock motor, and 53,000ks on it.

will fit it asap so car will be all better.

also getting the rocker covers anodised a nice red this week, should help brighten the looks of the motor.

My mate just bought my stolen wheels without knowing so car will now be sold with 17x9 Sparco light weight wheels freshly painted with Federal tyres.

will post up pics tommorow

WTF? wow whats the chances, can u track the theif or too much hassle?

Tryin to on the sly, but heard he might have good relations with the rebels...

which means i stay away

There seems to be a lot of confusion here, every one is asking me why i needed to put in new bearings.

so here is my answer

i have never killed any bearings, when i first built the engine i didnt know about the common rb26 oil problems. so i pulled the crank out and put on a JUN collar and Tomei oil pump (upgrading from the N1 pump i had on it) fitted an oil restrictor and external oil return, and i thought for the sake of 150 dollars i put some new bearings in. every one has been worried that the engine might have failed. which it hasnt.

Call me if you want to discuss 0414879711

cheers

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
