ive put a RB30DET into my r32 skyline which still has the stock RB20DET box. Will be making around 340rwhp. Ive been told that will be pushing the box on the edge.

First of all just wanted to know the diference between the pull and push typesin the 33 boxes, and which type is strongest and why? Also are the 34 boxes stronger than the 33's? cheers

240rwhp, the RB20 box wont be at its limit, it will be past it.

Im making 270rwkw... and my RB20 gearbox was whining by the end of my first drag meet and has only got worse. Just take it easy till you get an R33t box.

R33-t boxes have been proven to be strong. Its probably not worth the $$$ of trying to find one from a 34. Not sure if they are stronger but the 33-t one is strong enough for what you need

Dont know about codes but there is no pull or push boxes . there is pull and push clutches though .

As far as i know all 32 + 33 gts are push type clutch ,34's not sure .

32 gtrs early mods are push , late mods are pull . 33 gtrs all pull , 34 gtrs all pull .

Some people convert pull clutches to push when they install twin plate clutches .

i just got my r33 gtst box rebuilt because i couldn't get a good second hand box for under $1500 and it seemed crappy. some people wanted up to $2100 for a second hand box. my rebuild cost $1900 alone (including fitting & removal).

a word of warning to those wanting to rebuild a box out of an r33 gtst there are some parts that take forever to get. i had to wait over 3 weeks for two of the cluster bearings eventually giving up waiting and using the second hand ones that were in there before (these bearings were still ok but not new, it was other parts that were broken).

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
