If you wamt a bearing kit for a GTR (or any other car or engine) that is as good as nissan, but is not as expensive, call Gosford Bolts and Bearings. Ask for Brett or Garry. Phone 02 43254216. They will post anywhere in Australia and supply bearing and seal kits for all engines and gearboxes plus many other parts you may need. Good prices and the best quality available. I have been getting parts there for years.

Trouble is no-one (cbc's etc) has any listings for a r33 series 1 box.

Only options here for me is to pull the bearings out the box first, and then see if i can get them matched up (hopefully)

if i cant, then i have to fork out the stupid price nissan wants for the oem items.

I was hoping someone has done it before, and could confirm it could be done, even better supply me with some part numbers.

SteveL - Is there a cheaper alternative to doing a bearing kit through a series 1 r33 gtst box?

I dont wanna have to pay $450ish for a bearing set, if they are available through CBC etc....

Anyone not used genuine bearings for a rebuild before??

I paid $230 from memory for all the shaft support bearings in an R32 GTR gearbox, and that was through a local bearing specialist, not Nissan. R33 GB is very similar to GTR, but it would be best to have the bearings out of the GB and take them along to make sure of positive ID. There are also specialist auto bearing catalogues which most bearing place have which lists all the bearings in a wide range of cars.....whether that covers imports I don't know. Sometimes they can also cross-reference from the manufacturers part number.

Sleeve - Coupling 32606-58560 (or 58S60)

I'm afraid the news is bad. We've attempted to trace the 3rd gear PN in terms of the Nissan model it came from (a reverse directory look-up, if you like). There's no doubt that these parts are not for any Nissan Model sold officially in Australia. We can also say they are not for a JDM R32 GTR or R33 GTR. A quick check of some other JDM models in the JDM version of FAST turned up a blank as well (eg R32/R33 GTSt). Theoretically if you knew all the JDM model identifiers it would be possible to track these down......eventually, but it would be a very tedious job.

Since these parts all have 'V5' in the last part of the PN it's likely they're for the same type of gearbox.

Sorry for the bad news, and there's really not much more I can do.

    • Please use a modern ECU. PowerFC with the Nintendo Gameboy controller is horrible. It's not 2005 anymore.
    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
