Th400, Trimatic, C4 Into A R33 ?

[DR R33]

_G'day

_{I was driving the R33 and the box is about to go, this will be my 4th box ive changed. Has anyone ever put in a TH400 or a Powerglide into a R33 ? I need something strong ive spent too $$$$ much on recos and shops kept promising the box will indestructable blah blah. My car is a daily driver.}

I have a C4 in my 33. Was awesome till I broke it. Not sure what let go as yet as I havent touched the car since it happened. It has reverse and no forward gears.

I was running 475rwkw thru mine and 900nm

[DR R33]

Crazy !! im running about 190 at the rears, I just need something that will last. Did you have a B&M shifter ?

[WHITER33GTS-T]

Exactly - WTF? Most people dont have problems until you head north of 350kw, and AFAIK no-one has problems at <300kw. Something's not adding up.

If you're interested in a C4 PM me.

Dont piss about and just get a powerglide from Neal Transmissions

Yep there is more to the story.

You could simply buy a 2nd hand stock auto, and install it and it should be totally fine.

sounds like the shops doing the "recos" have no idea, or you are abusing the transmission something severe.

One does not simply break transmissions with 190rwkw.

[DR R33]

I give it abit but i dont thrash my car. Im considering buying a second hand auto and getting it toughen.

[M Menzies]

I had my transmission rebuilt at knox automatics and had a stage 2 shift kit fitted and it drives bloody awesome. i have 238rwkw and this thing is so much fun to drive now. give michael or bert a call on 0397642222

Why not consider the 300zx TT gearbox. Call Mv automatics they do a adaptor to go vg30 to rb25 and retain over drive and will build you a nice box to suit your requirements.
