So I paid 5k for the engine box and conversion, now there telling me the neo box won't fit in my 32, has any one done this conversion before? Will it fit? am I getting jibbed? If it doesn't fit r33 s2 box next best option? Any one want to trade r34 gtt manual gearbox for a s2 r33 det box? Help

Hey man thanks for the help, they told me thy it won't fit because it's to big! But if what ur saying is right that they are the same size, these guys must not know there cars. My bro inlaw has a 25 det box from a 33 and that fit fine. Anymore info would be a bog help

Ask them WHY it won't fit.. because physically, I believe the only difference is the slave cylinder/how it bolts up as 34GTT is a pull type clutch.

It is a tight squeeze as our tunnels are meant for the RB20 box which is a lot smaller, but it IS doable. There are also plenty of people about with 25Neo/box conversions in their 32's.

Oh awesome! I'll go down there Monday and have a word to these guys. If they still believe it won't fit just have to take the gearbox somewhere else, hopefully they give me sum money back for not putting the box in, then again I did pay 5k for the engine loom comp and box including labour they just haven't put the box in.

Hey mate if they fit it what has to be modified? Tailshaft what else? Plus I need a good clutch?

Gearbox crossmember, tailshaft and speedo drive.

If you have spare coin then you might as well chuck a decent clutch in there now because there will be so much super happy fun time with a bigger engine in the 32 that I envisage you destroying the stock clutch pretty quickly :P

Haha I spoke to a few machz today, told me it's much easier to fit the 33 box so I'm going to find sum1 to trade it with or just sell it. Yee I got a mate that works at fast fit his gonna get me a decent clutch from exedy. Can't wait to see what this neo engine feels like when I open it up. Gonna get the power fc this week

:P

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!

      Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out

      I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.

      I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?

      I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
