Recon Gearbox..!

[AdMan]

Well, after trying to stop the rumbling of my gearbox which I thought was the thrust bearing, didnt work obviously. I have decided to just get it rebuilt or replaced.

Crunches 3rd on high rev shifts, and reverse doesnt go in as nice as it once did. The worst is the grinding when downshifting, louder then the exhaust.

Its hung in there for a while, and with me being defected I thought now is the opportunity to finally get it sorted with.

Ive looked around the net for a while now, and just cant seem to find a straight answer anywhere! Basically, I believe the engine in my Cefiro is from a 32 skyline. Everything tells me its a turbo and manual conversion.

So I just want to know, how much is a price for a recon gearbox from somewhere? Ive seen 2 now and they are completely different prices. :S And what is this price actually including in the rebuild? Or would it be better to rebuild the one I currently have now?

Thanks for your time.

Adam.

I would just rebuild the current one...I thought a rebuild would be about $1500

If this is an RB20DET gearbox, PM me with a full description of the symptoms. My mother's gearbox business can recondition your existing box for $1000 plus freight (should be about $40 each way to Melbourne and back). This includes replacement of all bearings/seals/synchros and 12 months warranty. She'll be as good as new
