Getrag Input Shaft

Hi guys,

Last night I was assembling my 26/30 I've just built from what was left of the rb26 out of my r34 gtr.

I went to line the clutch up as you do with an old input shaft that I have used previously to line the clutch up on my r33 gtst however it wouldn't fit :S

Does anybody know if the input shaft of the getrag 6 speed from the 34 gtrs or if gtrs in general have a different input shaft compared to the gtst?

I've tried a search but came up empty :blush:

Thanks in advance!

Mark

yeah you need a clutch to suit the getrag input shaft. the 34 GTT or 33 GTST box is not a getrag. the 6 speed GTR box is completely different and input shaft is different size and splines. to top it off the old nismo 34 GTR clutch kit came with a new input shaft for the getrag box as they were a known weak point (twisting I believe) so you may be unlucky and find that the previous owner had a nismo clutch and now you'll need a clutch to match that particular shaft.

hang on, just realised you just want to align the clutch before you fit it up yeah? you actually still have the gearbox to mate up. well some driveline place should have a clutch aligning tool that will fit the getrag type clutch. sorry for the useless rant above! lol. shouldn't be more than $20 or $30 for a getrag type clutch alignment tool.

Thanks for the answers guys!

Yeah, kind of what I suspected :blink:

The previous owner told me that when he had the clutch changed by Advan in Sydney they had great trouble in finding one that would fit and the comment from the mechanic was that the gearbox wasn't standard the standard r34 gtr box, which I did find rather hard to believe :blush:

I guess it would make sense that I may have a Nismo input shaft.. Could you be nice enough to link me somewhere that has details on how I could identify the Nismo item compared to the stock?

Cheers :)

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
