anyone?

In general terms the newer the gearbox, the better condition it's likely to be in. The gears themselves are probably similar, strengthwise (size, etc), but Nissan makes 'running' production changes and there are likely to be a detail differences (synchros, etc)......certainly that's true of GTR gearboxes which, apart from the transfer case and shifter mechanism differences, are v similar in design to GTSt gearboxes.

They changed from a push to pull type goin from R32 to R33, R33 gearboxes are the same besides the age and are basicly a GTR gearbox without the transfer case and so on for the 4WD system. They are also reportedly capable of handling around 550HP ok.

      To back this up, I'm always looking on the outside, seeing the level, and then opening it up anyway, as I'm worried the level I've looked at, is more so a scunge line. Then you end up dipping your damn finger in it too depending on the type of tank you're looking at just to make sure I'm not going insane.   PS, Mark, polish up the none moroso one a bit and then give it a clear coat. The Moroso one looks to be way shiner (not mirror polished, just shinier) and it'll still look weird with the two different alloys beside each other. Either that, or Id probably paint them a flat black...

      Yes, overthinking. Many PS reserviors are completely opaque. Our Skyline ones, for example. Have to remove lid, peak inside, swirl the dipstick, try to remember how to read it, etc etc. Normal. Radiator overflows are often sufficiently opaque and scunged up that you can't see the true level inside anyway, and have to open and have a peak. Besides which, I replaced the (massively expensive, even back then) plastic overflow in my Alfa GTV, back in the '90s with a stainless one that I had a good fabricator make up to be dimensionally same-same, that looks remarkably similar to the Bogan's Moroso one above, and I never suffered any particular paranoia that I didn't know how much coolant was in it.

      Looks great, but I'm always concerned that it makes it difficult to see what level the fluids are at. Am I overthinking this?
