How does one recognise gearboxes meant for the different models of R32 skylines.

Looking thro the forum, there seems to be some info, but not enough.

Perhaps some one with a little experience can share their knowledge here.

It would be nice to know the external markings of these gearboxes and the ratios they come with and which model engines they can be mated to.

Thanks

Hey so i need to know the same thing, does anyone know how to tell the difference between an rb20 and rb25 gearbox from the caseing, ive just pulled my engine and box out and was told when i bought the car it was a 25 box but i know the guy i bought it off and hes usualy full of shit... so yeh just something to look for to be sure would be great he also said it came out of an r34, any difference ?

Noticeable difference in size between turbo and non turbo gearboxes. Google image is your friend, or eBay listings selling those gearboxes.

R33 and R34 RB25DE boxes are smaller than their turbo counterparts, so it might well have an "RB25" box but this does not mean it is the bigger turbo box.

    • Hi, i’m making Vag coil loom for rb25det, can anyone confirm the wire guage i’m using for power supply in diagram is enough for supply not too small for loom? For earth do i need to follow the same procedure or i can use only 16awg wire for all coil and their connecting wire following to the plug?
    • Did you panel beat the dents or have you tried to repair this only using filler?  Is your sanding block soft/flexible and is following the shape of the panel rather then just knocking down the high points? 
    • I haven't knocked them down yet. I think I made the repair more complex than it should have been. I had rock chips combined with waviness and dents and I tackled it all in one because it was near each other and just end up wasting a bunch of bog lol. I'll knock down those areas and see how I go. And yep what you are saying at the end is correct. I think I might be sanding the top of a steep hill then my sanding block falls into the dent and gets rid of the guidecoat if that makes sense. Though shouldnt unless I'm covering too big of an area with not a long enough block. I'll try something new and provide some updates. Getting there though! Thanks as always.  
    • Yeah makes sense, hard to comment on your situation without seeing what your doing. I was talking generally before, I would not be looking to randomly create low spots with a hammer to then have to fill them.  It's hard without seeing what your doing, it sounds like you are using the guide coat to identify low spots, as you're saying the panel is still wavy. I don't see how you're not ending up with patches of guide coat remaining in a wavy panel? Once the high spots are knocked down to the correct level, surely to have a wavy panel you need low spots. And those low spots would have guide coat still in them?
    • So I'll put filler past the repair area a bit to make sure I don't miss anything. Then I'll block it until it's almost level, put the guidecoat, then keep blocking until it's gone. Then it's still wavy.  In regards to hitting the panel, I saw this video might give more context - Skip to 0:47 he knocks it down. But yeah I'm sanding until the guidecoat is gone then checking because otherwise my filler is still well above the bodyline. Unless what you're saying is I should put guidecoat around it early, surrounding the filler then stip once it's gone?
