Nah man. Was ordered two months ago. I'm betting late February if delivery in Japan works well with the container it's being put in.

They both have taller ratios.

Assuming a 265/35x18 tyre and stock ratios and a rev limit of 8000 RPM the speeds are as follow

Stock

1st - 75

2nd - 120

3rd - 180

PPG Helical and straight cut dog

1st - 89

2nd - 143

3rd - 189

OS GIKEN

1st - 87

2nd - 138

3rd - 190

Is the os giken speeds that you have showed are they the correct speeds even with the close ratio gear set? I would have thought that the closer gear set would shorten at least gears 2,3,4 and 5? Ow btw are those figures for a 34 ? Or 32 gtr?

The OS GIKEN 5 speed is most definately taller than factory gearing. That is assuming 4.11's in the diffs. Gts4 ratios will shorten that by 7% iirc.

What's the setup?

It would make the gearing awfully short with the 4.11's. You'd be changing gears like an Evo. It isn't the cheapest conversion to do.

Like he said what's the set up?

Set up is an r34 gtr getrag 6spd gearbox fitted to a 32 gtr .. it's the whole box including everything needed to do the conversation

By setup I meant what's the engine/turbo combination.

Boobee. The reason I was asking turbo/engine combo is that (and this is my opinion only) the taller gears in the OS set make a lethargic bottom end of a 2.6 L engine and make it even more pronounced.

For example, a mate on here on a pretty decent R33 GTR put one in and ended pulling it out and going back to stock ratios. That was predominately a track car too. 2.6 with -9's and -5's at different points.

Just something to think about.

Bakemono. Cheers man :D. Be good to drive it again lol.

Oh the lols

only do the Getrag if you do the 3.545 diffs as well, 1st gear in my 34 is now and always was useless even when it was a 2.6 with -7s, so add 4.11s to that and you may as well stay with the 5 speed as you won't use first with the Getrag

I can't wait to see the difference between 4.11s and 3.545s with the two identical OS88s once put side by side :D

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
