FS5R30A Gearbox from D22 Navara Conversion to 25det

[elohim_imanu]

Has anyone had experience at converting a D22 Navara gearbox into a 25det gearbox. I understand they are both the FSR30A but need a bell housing swap. Is this all that has to happen?

Cheers

I'm also interested in this. I see D22 gearbox's going really cheap sometimes.

I am in the process of attempting this at the moment.

I have the a D22 VG30 $WD box partly stripped next to my R33 GTR box also partly stripped (especially most of the teeth on 3rd gears)

The D22 box has longer input and output shafts so I am stripping the 2 boxes to see if I can put the gearsets from the D22 into the GTR box  🤔 .

Let me know if you want to hear whether it works out.

Cheers

A lot of people including me will be interested in this. The more detail the better, cheers.

Did one of these late last year to go behind an rb. Used a late model D22 RWD unit that we managed to source at the wreckers

Input shaft is longer in the spiggot section, but can be machined down to suit desired length. 

bell housings will swap over to what ever style rb you want to use

As per turboedsloth comments. Mine blew 3rd when already in gear and putting load on coming out of corner. Not stronger than GTR gears and ratios help for staying on boost in 2nd at 4000rpm and 60km/h.

Probably okay for 600hp on road tyres, but not 600+kW on full slicks.

Also only 70% engagement on spline of front twin plate clutch plate.

I used Redline Shockproof medium weight oil.

Looking at Samsonas option now.
