thats the night i blew the motor...  

it has 180kw@ the wheels..  

i just need a tuff gearbox for it

Nice pic. Thats something that concerns me now that I am 4wd. Although its fun to lauch (as I discovered tonight) it must put some serious strain through the drivetrain. Especially with 265 Yokos all round. Whats 180kw @ the wheels worth on the 1/4 for a rex?

Hey whats the deal..

My cat wont go fater the 180km/h :S ... anyway i can keep it going .. because as soon as it hits 180 it kinda feels like i stepped on the breaks

in simple, i think its still speed limited.

how do you go about taking it off.

are them ment to be rev limited too?

don't worry JL .. GTR are good for 300rwkw, a mid-12sec 1/4 and plenty of punishment before snapping. Although the transfer case can be an issue after that. Seen one of them snap..

But generally they are build like rocks, unlike some other manufacturer vehicles :P (just stirring stuntgirl)

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
