They are made by Quaife (England) under license for Trust.

You can buy parts from Trust Japan.

You will be buying lots of parts... :uh-huh:

Hey there. i'm currently rebuilding my trust dog box.

and would like to know. who the hell makes them?

is it hollinger??? as thats what i was lead to beleive!!

HELPPP

the bit that makes me cry, is that the replacement box at the moment cant handle being shifted frm 2nd to 3rd and has broken also. shame shame shame!!

but i'm without a licence so i dont really give a fark at the moment.

just hope i can get this puppy fixed so someone or myslelf can use it

Least you got to drive yours! I picked up a stolen and recovered one. Idled nicely, started well. Yep I bought it. Drove it on the trailer, drive it off the trailer at home. Start putting the interior etc together before i register it. Then it turned to %$^t! My mate starts it and asks why my oil pressure guage doesn't work. Strip the bottom end. Previous rebuild had too much silicon on the sump and jammed the oil pump relief valve open! Been like it for a while cos the thrust bearing surface on crank is rooted. So i kinda lost motivation for fixing my GTR too!

mashrock that is nasty stuff!!! how did you manage to do that? and what sort of power are we talking here?? makes me want to granny shift for life!!!!

its more response than power.

i have 34n1's, cams, 1.2 bar, etc.. porbably around 300-350kw?? i am not sure about figures. but my mate who has driven many of the skyline say its definatley one of the quickest hes driven.

this is the shaft stripped down. there be more photos in the galery

Contact Simon at www.ppgearbox.com.au/ as I know they have gears to suit all different box's.

i can get it locally machined etc.

this is what i need which is the main shaft on the imput side..

its no problem to get made at all. but i am seeing what quaiffe have to say before i move ahead.

this is what i need which is the main shaft on the imput side..

That's a torsional failure of the shaft - probably fatigue. I'd need to see a photo of the fracture surface to be sure, better still I'd prefer to examine it directly.

Looking at the design and the fracture location, the failure is probably related to the design of the splines and their relationship to the bearing. Poor heat-treatment/core strength are possibilities as well. A proper failure analysis would tell the story.

have a look through my pictures. and there is a nice direct photo.

looks like poor heat treating to me..

but i am no expert.

but i also figured that the splines were definatley cut down way too far . they were atleast 1.5cm too far. and as you can see twisted and schnapppp!

    • I don't know if you can disassemble the thing and put it backwards for different ramp rates. They're both "2 ways" or both "1.5 ways" because well, 2 ways and 1.5 ways are the same 'thing' I do not know for sure, but I believe the 38420-RSS15-B5 is the 1 way, and 38420-RSS20-B5 is the two way. In other words, I predict Nissan considers this: to be a 1.5 way. No idea what actually happens when it arrives/you disassemble it. It would be an excellent question to ask Nismo directly! I somehow doubt you will get an answer though, I feel you would be the first person to document what you encounter when you open the box and the internet would be grateful.
    • I'm going to slap an old nismo logo sticker on my spare one and sell it to the land of the free for a thousand bucks
    • lol, probably should have read further!
    • Well - they have arrived.  And they are easy on the eye to put it mildly... These only have three bolts - but for a start there is a key that fits with vacuum like precision..  And as you can see by my ruler, the interface is large..   I listened to a podcast on HP Academy about Dan (KiwiCNC) and I'm more than comfortable he knows what he is doing. R35 Bearing assembly should arrive later today so can mock that up for a look. Can't wait to get these on and get some brake pressure logging too. IMG_3860.MP4
    • I would be very confident that they are the same parts (the 2 different SKUs). It seems very clear that you can drop the cam in the 2-way opening, or in the other opening. If you arrange it in the other opening in the same way that you see any other 1-way diff, ie, with the flat of the cam up against the 1° side of the opening, then it would work as a 1-way. It can only spread the ramps when driving forwards - cannot spread the ramps on overrun. It would then appear obvious that if you put the cam into the opening "backwards", that you would get the angled flats of the cam working onto the "points" of the 1° side of the opening, which would give you ramp spread in both loading directions. I do wonder if the forward direction of the 1.5-way config is equivalent to the forward direction of the 2-way, seeing as the cams are flipped and the angled surfaces on those would need to be the same on each side - AND - clearly when installed in either the 2-way or 1-1ay configuration they are not intended to work exactly the same (the ramp angles on the 2-way are 10° different between forward and backward, and the ramp doesn't exist in the 1-way config). 'twere me, I think I would rather actually have a set of rings that offered the 2-way with two different sets of ramp angles, say the 55/45 of the existing design and maybe a 45/37.5 combo for a less aggressive effect), AND another set of rings with a dedicated 1.5-way opening and a dedicated 1-way opening. The 1.5-way opening would actually have the steeper angle on the overdrive side that causes it to be less pushy than the forward drive angle, like you see in many other diffs. But really - if this Nismo thing is thought out properly and all those surfaces work on each other the way that they need to, who am I to argue?
