Guys,

my transfer case clutch pack has come to the end of a very servicable and glorious life, anyone know if its possible just to buy a rebuild kit. I live to far from any one to send such a lump to be rebuilt?

nissan here have never even hear of a R32 GTR let alone stock anything for it.

im not sure if you can buy a 'kit' as such.. However i just had my transfer rebuilt by Terry @ Award Diff and Gearbox in Rydalmere.. Top work and decent price..

Try give him a call and see if he can help you..

I think Paul (twoogle) has had his one done there as well..

dont mind as long as i can buy a kit to cover the whole sorried episode i just know this will be.

And your the second one to suggest these guys so if i can get a number i will call tomorrow and see if he can deal me up some bits that will need to be used.

I bought the replacement parts through Nissan. They had to send it from Japan and the parts were pretty dear! It was $500 for the replacement plates, clutch disks and ends. It might be cheaper if you have a local shop re-pad the plates if they are in good shape. Then you have the cost of pulling the transmission too.

I ended up having to do a clutch too (my unit had stress fractures throughout) as well as having the internals of the transfer case be shot. They had gotten so hot that they were blue.

Now, my experience was worst than most as mine gtr was broken from the day I bought it. But like any big job expect to find more stuff that needs to be done while you are in there.

X2 for Terry...top notch work

Price well i guess that is a hard question to answer.

Have been really impressed with the responce from Award gearbox not to say racepace couldnt deliver the same too, it was just that i start discussions with Award first.

As for the price for seals and entire clutch pack is about 1k but you have to supply all the info from your car as they have told me that there are different transfer cases out there for the R32 and they have to pre order the parts from Japan as they are all special order items.

Again really impressed with Award, been great so far seeing as they are trying to find fault with a case about 10,000 kms away :-)

    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
