Hey All,

Just received a very nice bit of Gear that will be used with my Trust 6 speed dogbox :D

Part is: OS GIKEN CENTER PLATE R32/R33

I Got this billet Center plate to strengthen my trust box even further!

So many people upgrade there standard gearsets to the very reliable OS 1-5 Helical gearset but i have yet to see people use this great item. As many know an Upgraded sandwich plate reduces viabrations and reduces wear on the box....

The reason of this thread is to make people aware that OS GIKEN make this as most sites and dealers do not have it apart of there catalogue....Also wanted to show off this nice piece of gear :cool:

I got this through greenline.jp and it set me back about $1050delivered well worth it!!

Check it out :)

ENJOY

Feel free to comment :blink:

I originally wanted the GREX center plate but it was discontinued...

Im kinda happy i got this one as OS GIKEN are more involved with drivetrain parts etc etc so the design/quality has got to be there

I bought this about 2 weeks ago from Greenline so its either they had older stock or OS GIKEN have started producing these again.

Does anyone know why they discontinue items like this?

OSGiken discontinued their biggest seller (5speed kit, which is a move that doesn't make business sense), so maybe they're like all the other jap companies who are shifting their focus to VR38 stuff?!

Yeh Thats prob the reason steve...But stupid if there making $$$$ on it

its a cost to produce/store/market/freight vs profit equation.

unless the right hand side of this equation is substantial for a low units per annum seller its not worth it.

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
