Hey Guys,

I bought a R32 GTR about 2 months ago, such a AWESOME car, had a bit of a taste of a few over last few years.

One thing i noticed on the way home was a whine in what i thought was the diff.

But recently ive recently its not the diff its the gearbox (R33 Gearbox), cos when its out of gear and rolling their is no whine!

Any one know what the dealios is? I DOUBT its got straight cut gears, although the guy i got it off had hardly any mechanical knowledge.

Thanks

Nick

clutch in and whine = thrust bearing

clutch out and whine = input shaft bearing

either of these is intermittent and only at cold... low oil

straight cuts.... you would know its very apparent and alot will have dogs not synchos which changes the gearbox feel.... in short if u had straight cuts and you had never had a car with them you would think your car was broken

Sorry Luke, I get what you mean. My comment was in relation to op thinking that maybe the gearbox was straight cut.

Typically if it is the seller would mention it as it's not a cheap exercise.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
