Hey guys, I have access to a decent series 1 R33 RB25-DET gearbox. Just curious as to if there was alot of diffrence between the 3 RB25-DET boxes? I know cubes guide touches on it a bit, and im not talking about clutch differences. Can they all handle the same power?

Also what is invloved in fitting one to a R32? It will be behind (eventually) a RB30-DET

If anyone tells him to do a search, do it yourself first, there isnt a lot of info really, not in the one topic at least.

Maybe the few people who have done the conversion, and actually know what they are talking about post it in here and we make a sticky topic?

ok....here we go :)

r33 box bolts up to rb20/25/30 motor and gearshift is in same spot.

U need : rb25det gearbox, rb20det tailshaft end that bolts to diff, r32 gtr speedo sender, r33 red cog off speedo sender in r33 box u have, custom tailshaft, custom gearbox mount, r33 gearbox yoke.

R33 gearbox is longer so using a auto x member only works if you have an auto chassis to begin with (bolts in).

Cut the brown r32 gtr cog off the sender, and swap it for the r33 red cod (do a search i showed pics on "speedo sender fixed")

Any other q's lemme know :)

Earlier r33's like 92-93 use the push, later ones use the pull.

I wouldnt worry about which one is internally stronger. If you are that worried, get an OS gearset, or dogbox.

There is a conversion to make push to pull, or pull to push....i just used the push to keep it the same as the r32 setup.

Thats the whole reason for the conversion. If I wanna know if i can get away with a series 1 box, as its easier.

Realisticly i need this box to hold 450ish rwhp daily, which ive heard the 25 boxes can handle.

The reason I was asking about which had which type of clutch so we can make the one thread and sticky it. So we dont have to go thru like 20 others to try and find the info. I think as people use the RB20 more as its a cheaper motor, they will want to be using the rb25 box. So to save the hassles, one thread with all info would be much easier yeah?

I would say that all the RB25det boxes are of same strength, Possibly newer ones might hold up a bit better if they arent as fatigued as old boxes...

A cheaper alternative to the GTR speedo sender is the Nissan Navara speedo sender, Ive posted the part number numerous times here. It should only cost you $24 and readily available at your local Nissan Parts dealer. I think the GTR speedo sender is around $150 and has to be brought in from Japan

    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
    • I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk  
    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.
