ok, im in the process of removing my engine and i am stuck on the top 2 bellhousing bolts. A mechanic told me that i don't need to remove the gearbox in order for the engine to come out. So now everything is done except for those 2 bolts. How on earth do i get these bolts off. i searched and Can i lower the gearbox to tilt the engine with the tailshaft still connected? Or does the tailshaft have to come off

Car is R33 GTS-T

Please help!

Leave the gearbox connected, and when you lift the motor up and out the tail shaft will slide out of the gearbox.

Obviously you have to take the gear stick out of the gear box first

    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car

    • I believe @Duncan has given it a crack at Mt Buller before (in actual race conditions)
    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.
