My 33 5 speed seems to have a crunchy 4th gear at high speed, as well as some other random problems.

Before I hit the track again Id like to see what it would be worth to fix/rebuild but you dont really hear of many transmission workshops (they musn't advertise much?) so if possible could people put up any they have heard of or have had experience with - good raps only please if you want to diss PM me :banana:

Surely this could be sticked if alot of people posted!!

My gearbox is currently in the hands of Powerplay's in drummoyne's gearbox person.. Hopefully should have it back this week..

Will post up once I get it back how it went.. I've had a bearing issue for approx. 2 years (a long time :banana: ) so will be glad to get it back..

I was recommended them by D.I.F. who also had her gearbox fixed there..

I've had noisy bearings whining through all gears.. progressively getting worst.. Shoot Jo-Ann @ powerplay an email and she can give you a break down of costs..

I'm getting everything replaced that needs to be replaced with stock bits.. Most likely a number of bearings and some synchro's..

Looking forward to finding out what is wrong with it and grabbing some photos..

I would expect to pay between $1000 ~ $1500 for a rebuild in Sydney.. Personally prefer this to a 2nd hand gearbox.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
