R33 shifter bush issues

Hey guys quick question in regards to the shifter bush located on the end of the gear stick that slots into the gear selector 

R33 GTS-T S2

I recently purchased a replacement bush as mine was worn and there was a lot of slop in the stick so I went with a GK tech solid shifter bush as they outlast the plastic ones.

GK tech bush was wayyyyyy to big by a mile even though it was the correct one for my vehicle so that was a no go 

So...

I ordered a genuine Nissan one and guess what! The same damn thing is still way too big so could someone tell me if I'm missing something here or is this some kind of manufacturing screw up because after hours of messing around knuckle deep inside the gearbox I'm nothing but pissed off and confused

 Cheers

You sure it's too big? They can be quite fiddly to get in. I had tried a gktech 1 and couldn't get it in but the oem went in OK when lined up correctly.

Yeah it's literally the different between a 20 cent coin and a 10 cent coin i understand it's a snuck fit but it doesn't take an Einstein to tell it doesn't fit haha 

GKtech sell two one which is big one which is small. One is for GTR one for GTST. 

I have one here at home, I went to put it in but wasn't happy with it so I removed it. If you're in Sydney I'll give it to you for free.

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
