Ok...

Change of direction here...

I might be able to get my mits on a Getrag gearbox, now there are a few questions I need to ask..

1: Would the gearbox fit right into a GT-T from the GTR?

2: How would I go about removing the 4WD transfer case?

3: Is it possible to fit a GTR rear diff to a GT-T rear cradle?

On that note, how could I go about buying or importing a GTR rear diff...

Thanks!

I can't give definite answers, but what i can say is if the getrag fits, after the transfer case if off, it'll need lots of custom work. Think clearances for the transmission tunnel, mounts, input shaft etc. You'll likely need a custom tailshaft. Are GTT LSD's the same as GTR's? That'll come into play if you're looking at a diff conversion. It'll be easier if you use the GTT diff housing and replace the internals with GTR gears, assuming they're different.

I think most of the experts log off when it's prime time :P

It could be done but the floor needs a LOT to work to fit the added box and cut down transfer. i do ALOT of cut down R32 and R33 GTR boxes for S13 and R32 conversions.

The cost of a R34 GTR box and transfer will set you back the same as a Quaife 6sp or similar in good second hand condition..... and they will bolt straight in without all the hassles.

Hmmmm, speaking from your extensive experience, how would a Supra Getrag go?? Obviously it would be minus a transfer case, as the Supra is RWD.. I'm assuming this would make it somewhat easier.. Have you ever done, or heard of a Supra 6spd being installed into a Skyline?? Otherwise, what would the availability of Quaife 2nd hand 6spd's be like? and cost?? Or lastly, would it be possible to fit one of those 6spd manuals from the late model Falcons??? I hear they go pretty well.. However, how would it go fitting into the Skyline's transmission tunnel..

Appreciate the help anyways!

Thanks mate,

Mark.

supra 6 spd or v35 6spd would be preferable and easier

however they question would be why you would do this . given the r32/33 gtr - 33/34 gtst gearbox is pretty strong , good for 350kw at the wheels quite easily your extremely unlikely to push the limits of that box in r34 gtt . so why go for the extra hassle ?

much more sensible idea as you already have the manual box is to purchase an a/m gear set cost 3-4k and put that in , would probably be stronger than stock getrag and no size , tunnel , transfer , custom issues to worry about

Well speaking of the gearsets, are they available in six speed?? Can I get them in Aus? If not, who can import them??

Also, in the event I did want to go to a Supra or V35 Getrag, surely it wouldn't be impossible to pick up one of these transmissions, would I need to look towards Japan? or would there be enough of them in Aus??

Well I've now committed to a 3.6 final drive for my GTT, I'm now back in the ballpark to consider my 6 speed options, I saw a supra getrag that went up for sale just a few weeks ago. That is now sold so it is a matter of just seeing what's around, either a supra getrag or 6 speed gearsets is what I'm looking for...

Any suggestions??

Internally the same. Too much f**king around for little benefit. It's not even that strong a box anyway. I've seen people convert R32 GTR boxes to RWD so I don't see why it couldn't be done with an R34 one. Good luck. Start saving.

SAY WHAT!?

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but what Gearbox did you end up using in the end?

Cheers,

Glen

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By dbm7 · Posted

      Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By Duncan · Posted

      I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      One year is a bit concerning. Did you try contacting GSP? It says 5 year warranty on the box if I remember correctly. I'm also running their driveshafts on my S2 Stagea.   You could check the part numbers on Amayama for your year. Here's the link for my 1998 which gives the 39100-23U60 part number. Well, that and 39100-23U70. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6649-rb25det/trans/391 What does it say for yours?

      Stagea Front CV Axle Question

      By S1_C34 · Posted

      I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.

      CD009 RB Conversion

      Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
