About GTR boxes...

I look for RB25 engines and boxes as i want to do an upgrade one day. One thing ive noticed is that GTR boxes are about half the price of an RB25 box.

Usually about $900.

Why are they so cheap?

Im thinking of using one, if i can make it fit behind an RB25

Its always garaged , maybe soon we can go out for a cruise

Pretty sure I'm puttin a day permit on for this formal run/cruuse. Are you coming? We can head out and cruise together

GTR 32 boxes have smaller sinchro's. So if you go for a 33 pull type there is more expense in bits n pieces. (not just a push to pull conversion)

Could explain price difference.

Jimmy's GTR is really nice. Saw it for the first time today.

There was 3 at Shannons BBQ :D

Drivers window is stuck in the down position and swapping over to my old window module won't fix it, Half the functions on the module work, just not the window section. Off to the autoelectrician I go, I think theres something wrong with my door loom.

SkyWagon got her Front Shocks and Harder/lower Springs today. (Thanks Mik for the Tools!)

With other commitments thrown in, it took ages and especially those damn Bigass Nuts on the struts, what a bitch to undo, plenty of swearing but the ride is Sooooo Much Better. I think it's a whole 5mm lower. :laugh:

Tomorrow I'll do the Rears. :D

She also got some new wheel nuts, Center Caps, Valve caps and a Nice SkyWagStag sticker for the Kilowatts.

Just need to fix the exhaust leak and adjust the handbrake and we might be close to Rego name transfer...

Got my inspection on Thursday.
Played around with the drivers door today and finally got to it close correctly.

Heading over to shanes place tomorrow and raising the coilovers.

Then all I need to do is cut the wire for the hicas light on the dash.

Chuck some roadworthy rims/tires on the car (I guess yours are gone Rob :/ )
Also put a stock exhaust on there.

Hopefully the list I get back isn't too long

Ohh and my R34 left Japan on Monday :D

Yeah Sorry bout that. :(

I might try to get some more tyres for the lendings...anyone wanna chuck in?

Take your cluster out and remove the bulb for hicas, no chopping.

Northwest in Fyshwick are pretty good for 2nd handies. (not the other kind of handies) :D

The spares that are now on the Wagon are 225/45? R16 and have passed several times. ;)

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
