Hey guys... looking into a stronger alternative gearbox for my drift car and someone mentioned jerico boxes. I did a bit of searching on them and it seems they fit the bill.. strong, light, dog engagement and best of all cost effective. Has anyone done the swap and if so whats involved? i realise a lot of custom work will be required but i can do all that.

Well they are just a fancy dogbox toploader mate, so whatever that takes, i had one for a street rotary,

i thought about putting it in my R31, but it would smash borgys and tailshafts drag racing

, so sold it and went powerglide

cheers

Jericos aren't a bad thing.

The 4 speed is the controlled box for the new Zealand touring car category & for the v8 Dubai series as well. In the dubai series they run an external sequential shifter that is similar to the ikea shifters, Aussie designed and built too.

They have Massive ratio range and their service is rather good.

shitloads here in vic and cheap, had heaps on info on my facebook page awhile back, was going to make sr and rb bellhousings but i got lazy. i know of one place that has around 30.

Use this shifter and you are king :P

pm me with everything you know dude :D

Where are they $880 ?

I would like one for my 33.

Thanks, Mark

Renegade don't do a shifter for the r33.

They don't do one for the 5 speed Jerico either last time I spoke with them about converting one of the touring cars over

They were working on a 6 speed tremec shifter though.

You won't get one behind a GTR. You've got to remember they are essentially an old top loader box with straight cut dog engagement arrangement. They use a pissy extension housing and external selector linkages.

These are in no way comparable to a top shelf PPG or hollinger H pattern box.

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
