  1. I might be out now, not sure if I cbf'd with my car playing silly buggers. Will probably only turn up in a normal car if I do turn up.
  2. Bump still after this. Any help appreciated.
  3. bump still after this if possible
  4. I'll let the shop know when I drop it off, taking it elsewhere now as I just want it sorted and the other shop is busy.... Having a gearbox place remove the box next week to check, and also getting a tailshaft specialist to look at the tailshaft before it's taken out, and perhaps test it while it's out. I don't really care if I don't get any compensation from the other shop now if it was their stuff up, I just want it sorted.
  5. Found out RWD one won't fit, if anyone has a GTS4 or r32 GTR tailshaft I could borrow for a day or two next week please contact me, if you can give me your vin details as well so I can check with nissan that'd be great. Thanks
  6. Time will tell, The shop I had the work done is adamant that the problem is the tailshaft and not the gbox or something related to that, and while that may be the case, I am hesitant to take it back, when every over place thats taken the car for a test drive doesn't think it's a tailshaft issue, and think it's something clutch or gbox related. So I am a bit reticent taking it back.
  7. Currently working through this, but have had shops tell me it's anything from a loose flywheel, bent clutchfork, unbalanced tailshaft etcetra. Working with the shop that did the work at the moment. Either taking it back to them or a specialist Gearbox place. Currently pissed off with the entire situation, whoevers fault it is.
  8. couple of days. Will have the car booked in to suss the problem out from tuesday next week. if you pm me your vin number and model code I'll check with nissan to see if they match up with mine.
  9. Currently troubleshooting a major issue with my car, and I'm after an r32 tailshaft. Preferably from a GTR/GTS4 , or a 4 door. Not sure if the 2 door and 4 door ones are different. Need this quite urgently if anyone has one that may be suitable. thanks
  10. Have a bit of an issue at the moment and thought I would post a new thread for this as the problem is a bit unique. Had the gbox rebuilt 4 or 5 months ago and had the tailshaft replaced with a one piece. Now just recently I had a coolant leak through one of the pipes at the back of the engine. Took the car to a mechanics and long story short they advised me that they needed to drop the box to get at the hose. Fair enough I thought. While they were doing it I told them to replace the other hoses there, so the box would not have to be dropped again. Upon removal they told me that the thrust bearing would need to be replaced as it was worn. I had them replace it. They said they had trouble getting the tailshaft out and putting it back in. Upon picking up the car they told me that there was a vibration and that the one piece tailshaft was too long, and there wasn't enough play in the tailshaft. Drove the car away and drove back after 500 metres as the driveline vibration was that bad. They still thought it was the tailshaft. This vibration was not there before dropping the car off at the mechanics. The driveline vibration is a hard rotational noise, and quite bad, it doesn't increase though between 40 and 100. It is just as bad at both speeds, and seems to change more in relation to the revs the car is doing. The car is pretty much undrivable for any long drives as the vibration is too bad. Took the car to one shop this morning and they told me they thought the tailshaft was fine and that it was probably more to do with something rubbing on the underneath of the car, or the clutch fork being bent or something not being reinstalled correctly. After talking with the place that rebuilt the gbox they seem to be pointing me to the same area, they indicated the tailshaft was fine, they had no problems installing it (was put on the car at the same time the gbox was rebuilt) The old tailshaft was given to the fabricators to measure and build a custome one piece off, and they thought it was something the mechanic has done. Wanted to know if anyone else has had a similar issue? Or does anyone have any idea as to what the vibration might be. I am taking it to a gbox place tomorrow morning to have them have a test drive. I just am not comfortable at the moment taking it back to the mechanic that did the work if it is something they may have done wrong. I may take it back eventually, or may just get the gbox place to drop the box and investigate and see what the issue might be. Any info or advice would be appreciated. Thanks
