Hey guys,

Wondering if anyone on SAU would feel like taking my gearbox out for some cash in hand.

It seems a bearing or something has let go and you can ear rattling + screeching every now and then when clutching in.

Also seems when the clutch isn't pushed in you can hear the rattle and also what has been described as a thrust bearing noise.

This is my last try before biting the bullet and hitting up one of the local shops to do it for me but that will cost me my savings that were going towards new rims.

Text me or pm me your price

Cash in hand or drinks lol

Why cant you do it, what do you need, tools or time?

Its only about 12 bolts, you just need 3 extensions and a uni joint for the bellhousing.

No tools and never done it before.

I am to worried ill stuff something up and cost myself a gearbox.

Also don't have stands or anything

Read the tutorial (im sure theres one).

Then you can get an idea if you can do it.

I can lend some stuff (stands, jack).

Its simple but heavy, dont know how youd break it getting it out, it will wreck things you drop it on (like your hand or foot).

I've never helped someone do one, but it looks like it'd be awkward as all f**k in a driveway withthe car on stands. I think it'd be worthwhile trying to get the car as high as possible though.

Do you actually know what's wrong with it and how to fix the problem whn you get the box out?

I'm doing mine in the next few days, it takes a day yes, but it saves $500 so it's not a bad idea to have a crack, in saying that I don't suggest you try unless you get someone experienced to make sure it goes together correctly etc..... It is good to have it up high but I use double stands when I do gearboxes on the ground as I don't trust them when u wriggle the phuck outta the thing to get it out.....

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
