Ok does anyone know how to differenciate between the RB gearboxes. EG RB20, RB25 R33 S1/S2 etc. Want to do conversion to R33 S1 turbo 5 speed in my DR and need to know what I'm looking for. Also is there any differences between turbo and non turbo R33 5 speeds??

Thanx, Vaughan.

rb20/30 and 25 de are all the basically the same box , phisically smaller than the 25det

33 s1 and s2 are the same box , 34 is basically the same box . externally can be spotted by extra webbing on the case . internally the same with different ratios

any 25det box will be the best to get

Yeh thanx MrMayhem, from what I've learned it's basically a case of slotting top 2 bellhousing bolts and a new g/box x-member and tailshaft right. I need the S1 cos it has a mechanical speedo output whereas the S2 is electronic.

Quick semi-related question. I have a little badge on my gear stick dash surround that says "Super Quick X" with a serial number -- looks like some kind of gearbox part ID plate but I have no idea what it's for and if it's standard? Any ideas? Oh It's on an R33 GTSt S2 ('96).

all 33 det boxes are lecky

levinet sounds like a phone number to a brothel give it a call

take a look at the shifter either from under the car or takign the console out and shifter boot off might find its a short shifter

Haha, funyy. But anyway, it's not a short shifter, everything seems normal... I'll go take a picture...

Ok, here we go, sorry about the camera phone pic, my DSLR is too much of a hassle to take out for a quick snap:

    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
    • Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
    • okay, so I figured this out, removed needles and reinstalled after swapping the gauge face on my triple gauge for my ER34, all work and look good. I tried to do the same for the main cluster, but the main cluster gauge faces are dished, the replacement gauge face are flat, so due to the dish in the org face ,mounting backing plate (clear) and depth of the needle, the flat gauge face will not work. I notice that R34 gtr gauges are flat, appears to be different clear backing plate that aren't dished. are these available, or what have others done to install flat gauge faces?
