I am looking to purchase a second hand gearbox for my late model R32 GTR(Pull Type), I am wanting to know, if there is any visual indicators I can look up to ensure the new box I am purchasing is Pull Type aswell.

Is the visual difference simply, those black clips near the top of the bell housing?

If I purchase a Push Type box, is it possible/cost effective to adapt my Pull Type Clutch to it?

I have read that you can simply swap the bellhousing on a Push Type Box to reuse a Pull Type Clutch, is this true?

Cheers

haha good pics, they are both from the opposite side from the details that show the differences.

the front plate of the gearbox is different, and so is where the slave cylinder bolts onto the bell housing. But pull can be changed to push if you have a push front plate available (eg your old gearbox)

My old box is a Pull Type.

Can a push box be converted to pull? not pull to push.

you just change the front snorkel over and bell housing so it doesnt matter if its a push or pull type lol

enjoy the new box !

Cheers man, but can anyone else confirm this?

there are only 2 differences - the front plate and fork setup (as you can see in the pics) and the mounting point for the slave cylinder on the bell housing.

nissan were kind enough to put holes for the push clutch in the pull bellhousing, but not the other way around - so if you want to change push to pull you need to sway the bellhousing and front plate/fork setup from your old box.

the actual gearbox is interchangeable

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
