Dunno why it broke.

I pulled the boost down to 1.5 bar (minimum I can run). Came in second session and second gear was knocking. Terry at award thinks its a bent or broken gear.

Dunno when I'm gonna pull it out. I'm a bit heart broken ATM.

i feel for ya man.....I really do. However, I'd be wanting to find out the cause of said broken gear as OS Giken Gbox should be capable of handling your cars power output

If I could quote both on my phone I would!

Ants; it's the torque. Twist x RPM = power. Bah.

BBQ Sleeper; I know what you're saying. I'm

Not one to be hard on the equipment. Hell, I turned the boost down and was shifting at no more than 6500 RPM. I never shift hard. Grr.

and that's what concerning to me.

Lol twisted gear set on a 2.8 litre with too much "torques"

Lol sounds like a farken assembly problem or bearing issues Eg assembly problem

Billet metal doesn't "bend" under 2.8 litres of nm

Just saying ... Unless your 2.8 is a 6 litre turbo diesel

Award f**ked up?

Hoping its a collapsed bearing. I've rung Terry and he hasn't given me good news.

The is gear set is rated for 800hp and if you do the math Paul's car is making some where around 750-800 at the engine, which puts the box at the top of its capabilities

Ye

Id put it at at 730-740hp at the crank

And you can really rate a gearbox by horsepower. Os should rate then by torque.

475kws is 617hp at the wheels now with an average drive train loss of between 20-30%, you're looking at 741-803hp at the crank and even if you take the middle ground of 25%, it's still 772hp

And the fact this car is making 350kw by 4500rom says it's making bucket loads of torque right through the rev range

+1 indeed.

So, after Tuesday, it looks like I have broken or bent a tooth in second gear.

Time for another aftermarket gearbox.

PPG straight cut dog box? The OS 5 speed doesn't cut it! :(

Transfer the money and I'll send it up..

You'll have to get rid of your nismo clutch though.

Lol.

Yeah, no.

There is nothing "street" about a holinger box.

Hang in there Paul, sure it can be heart breaking with things break but its part of playing with performance cars too....

I'd like to know how noisy a holinger is compared to a normal box too for streetability. If your not driving the car every day, who cares if its not a lot of fun in 3 point turns.

Have you thought of using an R34 getrag? With the R33 diff ratios it would handle more power, plus they are nicer to drive than an R33 box and cheaper than a holinger or built box.

I've thought about the R34 box. Are they really that strong? I liked the long ratios, it worked well. With the getrag and 4.11's it would go back to "Evo like rowing gears", which is something I don't think I'd like.

Holinger.... Nah. $20k for a box. Blah lol

    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
