It's a Samsonas 6 speed sequential.

Opinion of them Piggaz?

Have you heard anything about them?

1400Nm.....but thats while rolling, i wonder what a 4wd launch would do to it with sticky rubber.....

Wouldn't have a clue. The only person I know that has fitted one is Andrew Hawkins in JET 200. Looks like a neat unit.

I think powertune evo (snowflake) runs this box, I think they had issues with the holinger and now opted for this box. I did look at this brand but at the time they hadn't made one available for gtr's.

Fitting one of these right now into an R32 Skyline (RWD). Not a straight-forward fit and wouldn't recommend unless capable with panelbeating/welding and general nutting things out to engineer this into your car. Maybe when they make a custom bellhousing to suit rather than using the front half of the box casing it will be easier to fit as this moves the box 200mm or so further back than stock which creates most of the fitting issues. It is a big box and is a hefty 38kg.

My car is putting out at least 750Nm torque at flywheel so needed something that could handle this and around 10K cheaper than the Hollinger given that it comes with shift cut load cell and shifter mechanism. You do have to have an old R32 RWD case though - not a problem for me!

Can check out https://www.facebook.com/topcatracing/ for updates.

Phew, it's been a long time coming but planning on hitting the track for the first round of the Street Car Championship at Barbagallo on March 18th so hope the effort pays off and the box plays ball!

BTW, they now do a custom short RWD bellhousing for the Skyline which would make life so much easier.

    • that's pretty good condition, those chips are nothing. Get a mobile repairer to sort it out. Nice wheels, I had white 17's on my GT-R once, looked nice.
    • Found a car that has kiki desing wheels on it with diffrent plates that match a 2008 model when clearly it's not white  
    • Howdy friends, So this evening I had a need to remove the rear compressor turbo pipe (long story, but I'm replacing it due to a bolt snapping off in the pipe and managing to then snap an extraction bit in the broken bolt, fun times -_-). The rear bolt is a bit of a bastard and very little room to get good leverage. I was able to get a 12 mm socket onto the bolt head, but none of my ratchets were able to fit, so I put together a "stubby" socket wrench to get it out and it worked surprisingly well 🙂. In the past I've "made" tools by cutting down spanners and bending them with a torch etc, but this 3D printed wrench was way less effort. I'll be keeping this one in my "special tool draw" from now on for sure ^_^b https://www.printables.com/model/868973-half-inch-stubby-socket-wrench
    • It looks even better in Person 
    • It's good, but not as good as some people make it out to be on social media. Yes, you can feel the torque come in earlier, yes, it does make the car feel more lively below 4000rpm, and yes, it does feel more responsive, but it's not this 'unicorn' mod.  Everyday driving? Below 100km/h on Australian roads, it's worth it. At 110km in 6th gear mine will sit on about 2860rpm. Doing a Motorkhana or a small circuit? Yes, it's worth it. Doing Texas style speed runs? Prob not. Do you use the gears more? Yes and No. Doing 60/70km on most roads, I'm using the gears just like any other Getrag. 80km and above, you use 5th and 6th more often. Absolutely no issues driving with the 33 A-LSD. Didn't change the front diff, only changed the C&P wheel. Some people say to upgrade to a Quaife etc, but i've had no issue with torque steer or having it wander all over the road. The one thing that no-one really addresses is the issue of the Speedo being out. It's either use a speedo corrector, find a 33 gearbox speed sensor, or use an aftermarket display with GPS speedo.
