I got mine off by having about 1.5 m of leverage and one person pushing... one person pulling. I thought the bars were going to snap! hahah

Might be $1200 from nissan but they are (tonight) $143.11 shipped to Sydney each from RHDjapan. Im im for new coils and I wont be buying anything other then OEM.

After driving it tonight to wisemans ferry and back i think i might just leave it. Having said that, i might jump into it next week and want to rip it out there and then. What to do? ARGH!

Been there done that. New shaft, stock shaft it doesnt matter. Same F*^&CJEN shit! Dont waste your time man.

lol. Yeah that stupid thing. Hopefully next wednesday night at the drags will snap it in half at the start line. stupid POS!

Better not get it back and have the same problem!! I wonder why OS Giken dont warn us of this issue or is it that they dont know about it themselves?

Metal. DONT buy a ceramic one.

I thought it was quite a rubbish article. Couldnt they have given it to the stog and take it around the track or something?

I have an X force on mine. cheapest out of the lot. No problems here. Made 370 rwkw on unigroups dyno at 21 psi.

Who you getting to redo the box man?

Im going next week with a few mates.

In 2 minds how to go about this. Seeing that I got it rebalanced externally from them, the might not accept it. However when/if these guys do accept it back they will probebrly put it on some sort of machine to see if it is out. Now the guy that I got it balaced up through did say it is perfectly straight and is reading "0" on the machine. Bah humbug!

I hope your going to shift like a fairy with the stock box. It makes a great noise when it goes pop

Another report back Car has been tuned and i took it for a long drive yesterday. This shaft is going back to where it came from. There is a vibration/grumble at 70, goes away at 82ish then comes back at 100 then anything up from there it just gets worse and worse (not anywhere as bad as before. Anything over 120 you really cant see anyting out of the rear vision mirror). Also what i noticed was when you feed the power on it makes more of a noise then if you are just cruising. Im so over this thing! Going to WSID on wednesday so maybe a 7500 RPM launch might sort it out haha.

Will go back with a fresh set and more boost. Setup the car for as much area under the curve as possible.

Rightio guys. Just a quick question into when a upgraded front diff in a GTR starts becoming needed. I get my car back tomorrow from being tuned and it *should* be making 420 RWKW. (no dyno fights or anything). The previous owner did smash a front diff coming onto boost in 2nd gear. If it is advisable, what should i be looking at? Car is just a weekender with an occasional trip to WSID and the track (once a year).

IIRC all at 8000 RPM 1st = 87 2nd = 138 3rd = 190 4th = 235 or whatever it is (stock) and the OS 5th gear is 290

So basically most of peoples cars on here are rolling defect boxes. Hopefully Mr Policeman will be nice to us.

My understanding is that there are no differences between any of them apart from the R34 exhaust cam, which can be changed over if need be.

$2768 from Greenline in june last year. That was for the 1-5 + input. However i bought a new stock 5th as i didnt want the shorter 5th gear. Worn selector forks? My box was only 11,000 KMS old when i destroyed 3rd gear. Cant be that.. can it?

Ahh nice one. The bloke i spoke to on the phone has put 8000 Miles on his box and so far has run a 10.7 @ 135 MPH. So he is putting a little bit more grunt out then what I am. I suppose thats some peace of mind.

OK. Just got off the phone to the guy in England. He said the vibration isnt detremental...just annoying. Its caused by one of the shafts not being balanced up right inside (im not sure which one.. he couldnt tell me). He said if you are REALLY worried about it you can give RB motorsport in England a call and they can set you on the straight and narrow. His issues were the same as mine. Vibration in 3rd at around 80 MPH which is about 120 km/h (give or take). So in summary. It can be fixed. But it means the box has to be rebuilt! BOOOOOOOOOO!

OK. The guy from England was going to call me tonight. Might get a call tomorrow. I said to MSN or FB me but he was set on calling. My box. The box i broke was a 11,000 KM old R33 box (got put in when the stroker went in). The new parts that went in was a OS 1-3 gear set with the heavy duty input shaft, and i put a new stock 5th in as i didnt need nor want the shorter OS gear. I also bought the billet centre plate oh and a few new synchros. Sealed bearings. Couldnt have done much more so it was practically brand new. This is the post on the pommie forum from him: "was built a good 2 year ago only found out the other day its a box problem, have been told its not to much of a problem just a bit annoying, mine only happens in 3rd at 80mph, if your accelerating through the gears you do notice it, it can be fixed but obbviously its a strip down job, let me know if you have any joy with it mate, regards Dave" Now my problem doesnt happen in any other gear apart from 3rd. 3rd seems to be a little noisier then the rest also. You notice it most when you come on boost and there is a driveline vibration. I dont know how else to explain it. When i put the rear sub frame alloy locking collars on MOST of it went away. Now I can only assume i have just masked them problem... not fixed it. The box doesnt crunch gears, its very direct and smooth.. just this damn vibration! I just cant see when pumping over 400 rwkw through a box and its vibrating can be a good thing! The shaft. I had it balanced up. Put it in last saturday. Ive only done 20 odd kms on it. I'll get back to you with that after i drive the car in anger

Nismo coppermix competition model (740 PS or something like that) Very easy to drive, isnt noisy has never slipped. Wouldnt even bother looking at any other clutch... Im too happy with this one!

Do i get it back after you fix it?
