Interested to hear what people think of a 34 box vs standard 32 box strength

When I asked Terry at Award about this he said forget it. It won't last. He fixes "heaps of them"

However, you don't hear many busting. Who knows :/

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?????

I'm a fair bit late to this topic.. however I would love to know where I can pick up this upgrade package.. 

T.I.A.

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
