R34 Gtt Box And Diff .

[discopotato03]

I'm interested to know what people think of the R34 GTt's box and diff ratios , does it solve the R33 GTS25T's gear ratio problems or is is really just a marketing bling thing ?

Also does anyone know if they will fit in an R32GTST and how the box compares strength wise to the R33 RB25DET box . It was mentioned recently that the VLT box ratios are pretty wide which I thought an RB30 would not have a problem with but it would make for slow changes and short baulk ring life . Getting a first gear ratio change would be expensive on top of the cost of an R33 gearbox so I'd like to know if the R34 gearbox and diff fits and works ok in an R32 . No doubt alternate ratio syncro/helical gearsets are available but most likely cost squillions .

Cheers A .

I've heard a fwe people say R33 boxes are stronger but I read about a silvia workshop car that used the GTT box cos the guy thought it was stronger.

I've never heard of a GTT box dying in my years of GTT interest.

That said I've picked a GTT box up and it's quite light, dunno if this is good engineering or anything else though.

Ratios FYI:

3.214 - 1st

1.925 - 2nd

1.302 - 3rd

1.000 - 4th

0.752 - 5th

3.369 - reverse

4.111 - diff

I've got a GTT complete rear end available if you need anything.

Ok , I had thought the RB25DET Neo gearbox would have been of similar strength to the R33 RB25DET box . Are the R34 gearboxes basically like the R34GTR box minus the transfer case and FWD bits ?

No, R34 GTR is a 6 speed Getrag, the GTT is the same as ECR33. R34 Getrag parts don't interchange with any other nissan box.

from what i have found looking into my r34 manual conversion is that the r33 and r34 gtst/gtt box is the same box . can anyone confirm or deny that for a fact ?
