Hey guys, had a bit of a search around and gathered this info, but not sure if it's enough can't find much more ( i fail at searching). I want to put a 33 gtr box in my 32gtr and keep my push type clutch. Apparently you change the pivot point and tap the casing to swap the direction of the slave cylinder. Is there any parts i need from my push box box or is that all i need to do? I take it i use the slave from the 33 box and not my one?

Also, will i be able to use my 32 transfer case with the 33 box?

Swap the front cover (pic attached) fork, and pivot ball from your current R32 gearbox to the R33 box. Replace the gasket aswell, Kudos Motor sports or Just Jap sell them pretty cheap.

Then drill and tap the bosses on the R33 bellhousing and use your current push type slave cylinder.

I hope that makes sense?

which part do i disconnect? 114_0518.jpg

The mechanic is claiming it's one piece

edit: I can see now what he means by it's one piece. After looking closer at the pic that J'z-R33 posted, i take it that you just undo all the bolts on the inside where the fork is and swap it over like that correct?

I have no direct experience, but the common way mentioned on this site is to swap the entire bellhousing. Try searching again with that word.

I wouldn't do this - if you swap the bellhousing odds are the seal on the rear end of the first sandwich plate will get cracked;

meaning that the box will leak from there. To fix _that_ will need the box to be pulled down and resealed from the back to the front.

J'z is on the money; swap the relevant bits, drill/tap the blank bosses, and use the slave cylinder that's currently on the car.

You shouldn't need to undo any bolts that you can see in your big picture :P

Cheers,

exactly right...I've done it for a couple of them now. only thing you may need is the gasket behind the front cover.

yes you just undo about 10 bolts on off she comes.

    • You know how your car rolled through a fence in your last jacking escapade? Scissor jacks increase the likely hood of that sort of thing happening immensely!
    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
