I have just put in the latest drag version of the os giken box, Something my tuner says his never seen before he said it was a new type, The gears were huge he claims, Alittle noisy but im not worried. Neways Now this happens very rarely usually in the first 3 gears, As im booting it a miss a gear on the odd moment and the revs go through the roof 8-9000rpm, Is that harming my engine? I have stock internals but everything around i have modded cams, injectors, pump, PFC bla bla and the rest , only thiing i need now is the internals done. But neway i just feel like i've hurt the engine in someway and i get realllly shitttyyy when it happens as this car is my pride and joy, What harm am i actually doing when this occurs?

Your motor should have a rev limiter still so damage to the motor would not be something crazy, although standard oil pumps and rev limiters dont go hand in hand with the RBs.

Another thing to note is that when you do that you are flaring your clutch, this will kill it alot quicker than it should.

Its all timing, it shouldnt be an accepted out come that you 'missed a gear'. Try driving fast in slow motion, sounds ridiculous but it works.. After a while ull get into a nice groove.

Ty 9500 on a stock engine with N1 turbs! then you are getting somewhere, accidently saw that when I first got my 32, had fcon v pro computer.

I never had any troubles when it went that high. Just don't limiter bash, that kills oil pumps!

haha hates when it happens! Nah i never limit bash

GTRAAH you should clarify what box you've got.

OSGiken make more than one gearbox option.

I'll guess you have a 5spd kit that goes into your standard gearbox case. When you say latest drag box, people will assume the OS88 is what you've got

Sorry to hijack but kinda on topic, with regards to limiter bashing. Would a launch control like the gizzmo set at a much lower rpm say 4-5000rpm put stress on the oil pump? If someone can explain why as well that would be great

cheers Pat

LOL i do know how to Drive!! no one is perfect mate it happens! 20k??? wtf no yes i think n1gtr got my drift its 5spd kit that goes in the casing Mark at hills said there was a street version and drag version and i have the drag version. He said he has never seen this one before must be new.

yeah dude the gears in them are pretty massive ive ordered the 5 speed drag version myself

did u get it with the input shaft as well??

there rated at 800hp i think so u shouldnt break it with a stock motor i dont reckon

I was told they can withstand 1200hp this guy they know had the same box and he has done PLENTY of 9 sec runs in it, and still solid. Is the gearbox meant to be alittle notchy i would of thought that its like a brand new gearbox as in perfectly smooth gear changes like a brand new car, I dont know input shaft?? is that the main shaft? if so i put an r33 gtr one in there they are alittle stronger.

A correctly built OS box should be nice and smooth...

Yeah they are rated at 1200hp with a 9k rpm shift limmitation- OS recomends 800hp

The input shaft is the splined shaft sticking out of the front of the gearbox. It transfers the rotational torque from the motor/clutch to the main shaft in the gearbox. These are a "weak" link for high hp GTR's. Unless your planning to run 400rwkw or more- it's not needed.

The OS gearsets are designed for the later r33 GTR box.

Are input shaft and main shaft the same thing? i think it did come with the input....... Well i know that when i snapped 3rd on my stock box he said something wedged itself between the main shaft and put smal hairline cracks in it, he said to me that this shaft doesnt have force on it so it doesnt ever brake he said he had one from an r33 so he used it. The only reason i broke it is because of the gear braking and wedging itself in it.

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
