Hey guys,

I own a R34 GT-T and only recently realised during a clutch upgrade that it was originally a non turbo GT. Previous owner just replaced the GT engine for an rb25det neo but left the GT running gear in (gear box and diff)

Can anyone tell me the difference between the diffs and gear boxes of both models as my car made 200Kw last dyno run and i'm a bit worried I may be pushing the GT gear a bit to hard.

Also any opinions on upgrades would be appreciated thumbsup.gif

Cheers,

Luke

The RB25DE gearbag is the same as the RB20DET (ratios slightly different). ie, not really strong enough to handle the torque of an RB25DET (unless the RB25 is left fairly stock). The 25 turbo box is almost twice as big as the RB20 turbo box.

The diff is as strong as a turbo one. The only problem will be if it is not LSD, you will spin up one rear, which will slow you down, use tyre rubber and eventually break the diff if you twat about in it too much.

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
