R33 Gtst Gearbox In A R31 Need Help Urgent

[arabian_drifter]

hey peoples , i just bought a 33gtst gearbox to fit in my r31 skyline .

i found now while im under the car that the gearbox mounts and the tailshafts dont line up .

i have the r33 yolk and i have the standard tailshaft from my r31 gearbox , so i thought i can mix and match , but none of this combo seems 2 work .

can any1 tell me what exactly is needed for this ? do i need 2 get a differnt rear end of the tailshaft?

any help would be good

thanx

Alot of cutting and shutting I'm afraid, difficult conversion unless you're handy with the fabrication tools...

You need to get a custom tailshaft made. you need the 33 gearbox yoke aswell.

Use a Auto cross member and redrill 2 holes

It's usually the way with a gearbox conversion, I apologise.

If it hadn't have worked would you have come back and said thanks?

Just be careful any difference in length or angle doesn't put added pressure on the output shaft seal.
