Hey people,

Ok was selling my car until a couple days ago i put the car in reverse to get out of the drive way then took off and what a suprise 3,4th and reverse is gone.

I was going to buy a second hand gearbox but i would rather rebuild my own because i know where its been. Ive heard alot of stories where people buy boxes and there just about to go anyway.

So i wanna rebuild the box and i might aswell do the clutch while its all out.

Can anyone tell me whats the best clutch for a gts-t with 300rwkw? Something that will be durable, The car will be street driven but only once a week so not really botheres on a hardcore clutch which will increase the cars performance in anyway possible?

Also if anyone can direct me towards someone who specialises in the rb25det box rebuild? I dont want to just give the box to someone who doesnt really give a shit about it.

Thanks :D

Did the gears blow on you or you just couldn't select/engage them in the first place? It's unusual for three gears to go at once unless you've destroyed the cluster. Try to steer from second hand if you can...you have the right idea...it's very lucky dip, particularly from wreckers who won't warranty the things (can you blame them?).

Either a Jim Berry or an Exedy cushion button IMO.

I actually called this place on botany and the bloke also told me it could be the cluster.

What confuses me now is that i started the car today and it was going into gear fine? (weird). You can tell theres a problem but it was fine.

Compared to the other day ( It was popping out of third, and wouldnt even select 4th then when i would put it in reverse it was like the gear stick was stuck in there and wouldnt come out.)

Either way if im going to have to take the cluster out. I would rather get the box checked and clutch replace. Or am i just on another planet and dont know what the hell im talking bout?

Thanks for your help guys

Hmmm tough call, you have an odd set of symptoms there. Wouldn't know what's wrong with it until you pull the box apart I'm afraid. What kind of noises is it making if any? Grinds, whines, rumbles, crunches?

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
