Wanted: Someone To Modify My R32 Gtr Gearbox Transfer Case To Run As Rwd Only

[Mikha1]

Hi,

As topic states;

Can anyone do this in the Sydney area? If so, please point me in the right direction.

or a step by step tutorial?

The box is going back into a 4wd chassis.

I was going to gut the transfer case and get it welded shut, but apparently it's not as easy as this, so any help appreciated.

thanks

Pull the fuse out, problem solved

Do as Brett said. Even better, run a switch (and a relay, maybe? Never needed to do it, so not quite sure) and have the option of RWD or AWD.

Mine has a switch inside the car

[Mikha1]

Switch isn't possible at this stage. I dont have a front sump/diff to run front shafts!

Ive got a gts4 without the motor. It Came with a gearbox which is gtr.

I bought a rwd rb25det to drop in and now need the box to be converted to rwd only.

Thanks for the replies thus far, i hope you can understand my predicament

In that case put a rwd gearbox in it

Or just leave the transfer case there with no shaft, what is the predicament?

RWD gearbox requires modding the 4wd crossmember (adding some height to it), as a rwd gearbox crossmember won't have enough width to span across the chassis.

The diff stub will also need to be changed to suit RWD tailshaft. (4 bolt instead of GTR 6 bolt allen key)

The above will be my plan B, but It would be a real pain, as i would have to fork out extra cash for a RB25det box, whereas the GTR box is essentially a longer version of an RB25det box with the transfer case and longer shaft.

Scotty,

Early GTR gearboxes run a spline or floating type front shaft, not flanged like the Stagea's (i forget the terminology, . Therefore, no front shaft= transfer case oil everywhere.

I read that some people have gutted out the transfer case but have left a few things in it to keep it going. The hole where the front shaft once went in was then welded shut.

Anyone with more insight?

Mods pls close thread. Not needed anymore.

Ended up going rwd gearbox instead.
