I am putting a RB26 into my R32 gts-t and i am using a RB25 series 1 gearbox. I was searching on the forum but there is nothing about modifying hte drive shaft. I don't know what do i have to do the drive shaft? The guy who is modifying the drive shaft needs to know the measurements of it. any advice would be great. thanks

normally like to see the car in person and measure it up.They need

to measure the car at std ride height and the suspension travel to

make sure it has enough length and won't restrick movement.Hope

this is of some help

the tailshaft is a fixed length in a skyline, as it has IRS it doesnt move with susp travel.

some people have needed custom front sections (me) while others didnt need to modify at all (Cubes)

so all i need is the R33 gts-t yoke and get it custom welded to the R32 shaft. doesnt anyone know the length of the driveshaft? i need to give the measurement to the guy who makes the shaft, however, my car is not drivable and he lives very far from me.

lol

mine would NOT fit, had to shorten shaft.

Cubes DID fit, no shaft mods needed

diff ppl get diff results...not sure why. could have to do with crosmenbers used?? Either way measure it up for try the 33 shaft first before working out if you need a modded one or not

if in doubt measure from back of box with the meatl shroud removed to the rear shaft mounting face. This is all they need, they did the one for our rb26 with RB25 box into s13 with only this measurement.

When we had my engine out on the weekend I compared my stock 32 gtst tailshaft with that of a 32 gtst running a 26 with a 25 box that was in the workshop.. they were practically the same length (minus a couple of mm probably due to the cutting off of the old yoke).

      Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
