R34 Tiptronic Gearbox

[gaki]

Just wondering how strong are those R34 RB25DE NEO Tiptronic gearbox?

Does anyone know wether they are the same with the RB25DET NEO Tiptronic Gearbox?

Well I'm told they are very strong but i'm at about 200 rwkw now and having no problems. I know it's not much but it's about to be tested properly soon... :evilgrin:

They're basically the same unit...just got 1 clutch plate less...think it's 6 as opposed to 7. Everything else is just as strong. I reckon the GT-t one could be pushed to at least 250rwKw. If you're really worried get a shift kit installed.

My one flares a bit more than it did pre-turbo...but that's only when it's cold..no problems with it at 145,000kms of less than good treatment

666Dan, what do you mean by "My one FLARES a bit more than it did pre-turbo"?

How much rwkw does your car put out now with the high compression turbo kit?

[666DAN]

Jump into your car when it's cold and nail it....from 1st to 2nd you'll feel the gearbox slipping...not grabbing between gears..that's flaring. With the turbo you don't really have to try to *make* it flare when cold, the extra torque makes it's slip easily...until it's warmed up, then it's fine.

As for rwKw....during early dyno tuning it did make 147+ but the ECU was far from ideal and meant the car ran a little rough. A sequence of events after meant everytime it was due for the dyno something would go wrong with coils etc etc. So still a mystery
