Hey Dude just letting you know just posting a problem like with with little description is a way to just get flamed. More info would be good if you would like help but if you aren't too good with cars just take it to a mechanic.

im good with cars more info like age it is a 1994 50,000km we have done clutch fluid and gear oil i used castrol vmx-m 75-85 filled till it came out the hole the problem started 1 week ago all the work was done 4 weeks ago so dose any one know?

It has nothing to do with your oil, sounds like your clutch is not disengaging properly so try your master cylinder or slave cylinder for leaking fluid as it sounds like there is not enough pressure it may even be the clutch pedal.

Also reverse is a straight cut gear not helical like all the others so it should be that slight bit harder to get into gear as they are not meshed like a helical gear, just use your muscle and throw it into reverse and you wont have a problem.

he said the clutch may be dragging and if the oil is low or the wrong type he said it may spin the gear faster and been strait cut it will grind and not go in to place like the other gears but he said the clutch splines could be sticking or the slave isnt pushing out enough

My non-turbo 34 does the same thing most mornings on cold start, goes in but makes a horribly grinding/whirring noise.. pop it out of gear, pump the clutch a few times and put it back in, no worries. If I pump the clutch a few times BEFORE trying to put it into reverse for the first time, it doesn't do it.

This leads me to suspect there is a tiny bit of air in the system..

    • Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...
    • Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.
    • Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents
    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
