Rb26 Gearbox Onto Rb20 In R32gtst

[32gts-t]

hey guys, im over busting rb20 gearbox's and have a rb26 box ive found forsale off a mate for a good price. im wondering if it will bolt up to my rb20.

i realise ill probs have to change the tail shaft and do something with the the x-member. but will the box acctualy fit in the transmition tunel and bolt on to the engine?

im thinking of taking the 4wd stuff out and getting a sleeve made up to put in its place, i havn't acctualy seen the box so im not sure how it all works, but i sould be able to figuse something out

has anyone done it? i did a quick search but didnt come up with anything good.

any help would be great

cheers

It's a AWD box so it's not really going to work in your RWD. I think making it fit would be more trouble than it's worth.

Better off going for a R33 GTST box, they're quite strong.

Have heard of a few GTR boxes being modified for RWD lately.

The transfer section gets chopped off & a plate welded in its place...

Think you need to look into the cost of the GTR box + modifications & compare it to an RB25 box which is the exact same thing but already in a RWD format. Maybe if your mate is doing you a ridiculous price it will be worth it.

If not just go a 25 box

I run a GTR box behind a 30det in a 32 GTST without any floor or tunnel mods.

The std trans crossmember can be used, its the trans mount that needs mods.

You will also need a gtr tailshaft and have that mod'd to fit.
