Hey ya,

Since my engine is now built i was thinking of upgrading my drivetrain.

I can pickup a brand new Nismo Conversion kit of the R32 to the 6spd R34 Getrag.

This kit includes

1) Getrag 6spd

2) Transfer case

3) Twin plate nismo super coppermix clutch

4) Front prop shaft

5) Cross member

6) Shift knob.

I can get this for about $8000 USD and the thing I like is it will have 0 km's on them.

What is everyones thoughts? Im thinking eventually I will need a new clutch (not required yet) and my transfer case is 25 years old and my gear box as well. So if I rebuild/strengthen these I am looking at not much more for the getrag.

Also I have heard the 4.111 ratios of the r32 and the 6spd make for abit of fun?????

or you could try to get a AG-Y tranny, their strenghtening SS690 box is going for 200k yen. Transfer case from AG-Y is another 80k. Add 2k for anothe rbran dnew clutch if you wish. youre at 5000k yen ( which is about 3.5us I believe right?) Your still paying about 3-4k more for this mod. I believe both box would be of same strenght, so you decide if the ratio/6speed is worh that extra money.

no idea, but you dont hear of many breaking. alot of the Japan wangan warriors i.e. 700hp+ 34 GTRs all appear to run the standard box.

locally mercury Motorsport had one in their R34 GTR until going to a OS88 i am fairly certain they changed this out due to wanting to go to sequential not due to a breakage it at 800+hp

i have personally been running one in my 740whp 32 GTR for 3 months now, doing a few track days, racewars and general driving in that time with no issues.

only issues i have found is a total lack of traction in 1st gear so need to do 2nd gear launches to get the best out of it.

Also due to the gears being closer together it is common to miss a gear i.e. go from 2nd to 5th as oppose to 3rd, But i guess that comes down to getting used to the box and being a better driver.

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!

      From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.

      That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.

      I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.

      If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
