I had every intention of doing just that but i cant find the original bolts for the gearbox crossmember 

Another kudos order, I actually have a spare Speedo drive. But new is always better

Are they still at the zinc coaters?

When you fit the getrag you need 10mm spacers on top of the gearbox crossmember and I needed bolts that were 10mm longer and I’ve misplaced the originals cause of moving house

I’m thinking of trying skyline spares to grab a second hand set 

Nice, that's the way to do it! I watched another video where PPG just sent the centre section and the owner had to make a few mods to the housings to make it all fit. Admittedly it was in the States so a costly exercise to send housings over just to have them shipped back again!

I’ve seen that video and it is an option to do, ppg charge to fit the gear set for you but I like the idea of if it wrong I can send it back and get it corrected 

Couldn't agree more. Its not worth stuffing around with for that sort of money! Speaking of which, how much did it cost all up? PM me if you'd prefer.

Can't wait to see vids of flat shifts at 9k rpm!

Getting there, I get mine back next week, we should plan a cruise down south, but you’ll have to drive slow so I can keep up. 
the sequential makes a huge difference, you will love it!

Nice bet you’re look forward to getting it. Yeah we should go for a drive and I won’t be able to drive fast cause of the engine pushing water still 

Looking good, can it be driven yet? 
Did you unstitch the boot? I would have given you mine, the one I used with my PPG. 
Who is setting up the flat shift for you?

it can be driven, just wont have reverse lights or anything else electrical hooked up
the boot was already unstitched from having the getrag in it before
probably will be jem cause they tuned it last time

    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
