thanks for the PM - I'll reply back shortly.

I think the early GTR32 boxes have slightly different internals and synchros to the later ones and also different to the 33s...

I remember reading that here but can't confirm.

will require more investigation...

i have "the list"...the parts cost $1300 trade.

they have gone up over $600 since i did mine...ouch

these boxes are not as cheap as a lot of people assume.

budget for $7000+ if you dont already have a 2nd hand gearbox and over $6000+ if you do.

Did a search...again...and found the problem. Previous posts claim only late model 33 g'box parts are available. It also eluded that the 5 speed kit may be the only option for an early 32 box anyway.old thread. I do remember talking to Ant at XSpeed and he did mention something about using 33 parts to upgrade with an OSG kit

Hey Paul...If you could post that up that would be much appreciated :thumbsup: the 1300 sounds familiar

correct, nissan have superseeded the earlier model parts on only series 3 r33 ones are now available. but they are interchangeble on the older boxes.

not good to hear the price of these still going up. we might end up with ppg dog box after all :D

Thanks for the confirmation Duncan,

Greenline are running a special on the 5 speed at the moment

Payment confirmed yesterday...kit left Osaka today...gotta be happy with that :D

Sometimes it a suck it and see approach...the list changes from box to box..i.e early 32 boxes require a different list to later 32 boxes and early 33 boxes the list is different again...its only the series 3 boxes 97 that are right and dont need the list.

I think mine need 7 different parts to be ordered to get it right.

The kit has arrived. :( unfortunately I'm OS at the moment so I cant unwrap it to see if this list is there. The shop that is building it has done a few before so they should be able to sort it out. Mines an early 32 box so it will need everything I guess.

let us know how it turns out mate and if you are ok with it I'd be curious to see a copy of the list and the prices.

I'm sure you will love the new box. :ermm:

Thanks Paul and Richard.

The prices...mmm $1300. I'll have to see a mate and get it trade. I'll scan a copy for you and the list will go in the Parts thread. I fear for what it would be "over the counter". :P

    • I havent bought a manual cover for the dash yet and no cluster change, won't bother me too much, I just need to get that auto box gone, manual in! I miss my manual. 🤪. We started last weekend and managed to get the box out. Planning to start putting it in this weekend and then order a single piece tail. We were super careful to take time and not damage anything. It's my first time working under the car.  With my S15 mainly worked in the bay. This time, it was a headache because of three or four bolts only. They simply didnt want to leave thei homr and the one securing the tailshaft, another above the GB, and the one securing the lipstick was a shit. Mates mate, Davo caught fire 🤣, nearly opened his chest up with a grinder 🤦🏽‍♂️ and both mates nearly had a plate from the box land and slit their head open. Fun times. We all survived. Not the easiest working with limited access on jackstands. As I'm sure we can agree these are the memories which make us love our car. For all three of us, was an awesome weekend and Sunday 3.30am before tools down was a fantastic effort. I need to upload pics, but looks like it needs to be via Url now. We used to be able to just upload pics back in the day. It's been that long! 🤪 Im currently spraying rustoleum under body, not because it's rusted. It's super clean, but just so it's protected for the next 10 years. There was a few surface rust spots. Which pretty much wiped off with a 3M scourer.  Really impressed with how well the previous owner maintained it. Bank account went down so quick! Service, then GB - managed to get a spanking new 34 genuine box from Nissan. All the rest of the conversion parts from Kudos.  Went with a Nismo short shifter. New pedals and Exedy Clutch and FW. Ordered the Prp Rear Main Retainer kit which should arrive Friday and my first engine mod part just like I did with my S15 will be the Tomei Expreme Turbo Outlet. Already on order. It'll likely sleep next to me on a pillow during the coming months. 🥰 Last build was on my JET200GT profile and on SAU and Hardtuned I had documented the build. Planning to try to do that again. Brands feel scarce now. Wish we still had ARC and Apexi parts readily available. Exhaust - need some advice on this. I had an Apexi exhaust on the S15 and loved the tone. My mate had a HKS HP Silent on his 33 and suggested I go with that to avoid drone. I can't remember hearing an RB25DET running that so will likely need to wait for a meet or something to hear it.  Not after big power, just enjoy building it, and drivability with minimal negative attention.
    • Have a chat with Ben at Moore Performance or Jesse at JS Performance.
    • Thanks both. All good advice. Reminds me of drilling through stone wall for drainage pipe 😬 I'll let you know how I get on if I still have use of my hands afterwards 😅
    • Finally got shipping number for the intake and throttle body, shipped by UPS, so "should" be in my hands sometime next week, fingers fracking crossed
    • I'm so far behind in the jobs I have to do at both work and home (including car) that I have become immortal. There's simply no way that I can die now.
