I have an OS giken 6 speed Sequential box from a GTR for sale

Its been removed and siting around.

Basicly It had not been serviced regularly prior to me using it (I was told this when I fitted it) I figured fresh oil and I should get a few days out of it before a tear down and service. As a result the 2nd time I used it something went wrong with 3rd gear. (480Kw, 9000rpm change and didnt do much gear engaging)

It has not been stripped yet but I plan to do so this week and determine the exact problem.

Basicly if its simply damaged dog teeth then ill repair it and put top dollar on it. But if other parts are damaged or worn and the cost to repair is to great then ill offer it as parts/spares or whatever someone wants it as.

Comes with shifter and gear indicator display (Was brand new used for 1 and a half race meetings)

Id be looking for about 12 grand repaired (if it can be easily)

Or ill part it out/sell it off open to good offers.

I can supply photos during the week when It gets removed from the casings.

Also no transfer or clutch with it but I can supply one which is built to suit the transmission for extra.

Located in Sydney...

Do you know if parts for these boxes are available in Australia?

I've heard horror stories about having to ship OSG seq. boxes back to Japan for rebuilding. That being said let us know more on the condition once you find out. Might be interested.

    • They care about emissions, and cost the most. Save weight where possible, and make manufacturing easier. Less material also let's the engine transfer heat to water quicker, and bring the engine up to temp quicker, better for emissions and getting them past their warranty period.
    • I was under the impression the reason why OEMs are going with solutions like relatively thin "right-sized" cylinder walls with technologies like PTWA and open deck is because they care a lot about whatever marginal knock margin benefits they get from that vs the structural rigidity benefits of a closed deck block and thicker cylinder walls. I also see some weird stuff like plastic inserts in the water jacket around the cylinders to try and equalize cylinder wall temperatures. re: the PRP blocks and heads at the end of the day it's hard to know what is and isn't going to work there, just have to see what the initial buyers say about it.
    • Which is why I didn't mention that hardness testing, and specifically mentioned the bore and deck thickness testing. Yeah, not really. The bore temperature will be a lot more even around the top half inch or so, where the material distribution is dominated by the deck, and which is the only place where the bore surface temperature heating any gas in the cylinder is likely to have any effect on detonation. Think about it. Another inch or so down the bore, you might have a hotter spot. The gas there might get a bit hotter, then the piston rises squeezes that gas away from there at high speed and mixes it with other gas from nearby. Instant dilution of the problem. I'd be surprised if it was an issue at any time other than in racing engines or OEM dev engines being run at the ragged edge of tuning. Say what now?
    • https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/education/engine-tech-material-hardness-testing/ The PRP testing on block hardness I'm not sure how much it actually can be trusted. The thinner cylinder walls on RBs is a bit of a problem vs 2JZ but it really depends on the design goal. Siamesed cylinder bores like a 2JZ cause uneven cylinder wall temps too, which means a bit of distortion induced by that + the hotspot can affect knock margin. Something that actually gives me a bit of pause with the PRP block, whether super thick cylinder walls are going to keep it from being drop-in compatible on an otherwise OEM rebuild. 
    • Yeah very valid point. I am waiting for one of the other tuners to come back from vacation so he can help me a bit when the cat is installed again. In the meantime I am going to finish up my polishing and ceramic coating that I have started myself.    N45 Dr Beasley product is highly recommended for a paint primer / polisher. Using this EXO Gtechniq also for the ceramic but next time might use the light serum before hand also. Looks great.
