G37Sam Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 (edited) Hello fella's. I got an RB25 Pull Type transmission mated to my RB30 and was told that there are no short shifters for it. Is that true? The OEM shifter travel is schoolbus-like! Any help on this would be appreciated.

GTSBoy Posted April 17, 2013 Share Posted April 17, 2013 There's no difference between the back half of push and pull type RB25 gearboxen. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/423733-rb25-pull-type-short-shifter/#findComment-6819360 Share on other sites More sharing options...
G37Sam Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 So you're confirming a short shifter for a push type will work on a pull type? Are you 100% on this?

89CAL Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Push and pull refers to the clutch engagement. Nothing to do with gear selection. I'm using an SR20 shifter in mine so I don't see why they would change the design of the 25 boxes if even an sr20 one will fit Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/423733-rb25-pull-type-short-shifter/#findComment-6822735 Share on other sites More sharing options...
G37Sam Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 The vendor selling me these is telling me the bushing in the lower end is different on the push and pull type. Guess I'm just going to have to gamble with this one.

Hanaldo Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 (edited) Just to throw a spanner in the works. My pull-type 25 gearbox has a short-shifter in it from my old RB20 gearbox (from when the car was NA). The RB20 shifter (and R34 gearbox) use a small nylon bush, whereas the R33 push-type 25 box uses a much larger one. Ergo, you need a short shifter for an RB20 gearbox if you are using an R34 gearbox. Good to see a seller knowing what he is on about!

G37Sam Posted April 21, 2013 Author Share Posted April 21, 2013 Thanks a lot mate. Raw Brokerage in the US sure know the RB platform very well. It's where I got most of my RB parts from. Looking at the below Nismo Shifter from eBay and keeping in mind your RB20 was off an N/A http://www.ebay.com/itm/NISMO-SOLID-SHORT-SHIFTER-NISSAN-SKYLINE-HCR32-ECR33-ER34-R32-R33-R34-RB25-RB20-/221198637398?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&hash=item3380775956&vxp=mtr Would I need: 32839-RN580 or 32839-RNR40?

Looks like you want the second one mate, RNR40! I actually think they would both work, but go the RNR40 as RHD Japan specify that for both R34 GT (RB20 gearbox) and the R34 GTT (RB25 gearbox), so that looks like the one you want! 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/423733-rb25-pull-type-short-shifter/#findComment-6824067 Share on other sites More sharing options...
