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).

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
