Hi Jason,

If Mr Mac isn't biting then I would seriously consider buying that gearbox, if you know that it is in good going order. I am assuming it's out of the late V8 C210. The 2nd hand box that recently went into my car is completely stuffed. I'm in Vic, but would be happy to sort out some postage.

Cheers,

Drew

Under $200 might be a bit stiff!

I have been quoted $350 for an aussie R30 box in reasonable condition, 2nd hand from a wrecker.

I have also biught an L20ET box for $120.00 but reverse was a bit iffy, so I had it rebuilt.

I also have a US Spec BW T5 and am getting Stewart Wilkins to mod an L series front housing to accomodate an RB20DET box.

I have no trouble finding 2nd hand sub $200 dollar 240K/C210 gearboxes at the wreckers, ebay, or on Oz Dat... but I have found the problem to be the condition of the box usually lies somewhere between questionable and completely unknown. Rather than hoping for the best, I think I should just wait until I have a lazy $500 - $800 and completely rebuild the one I've got. If I put another 2nd hand box in my car only to find it was stuffed I'd definitely throw a wobbly!

However... if anyone on the forum does have a 2nd hand box, and can vouch for its condition, please let me know.

sr20/ca18 box on datsun bellhousing is fairly easy. abit longer than a datsun long box tho, so gearbox x memeber will need mods.

Ive looked at rb30e, and they looking like a easy mod for a datsun L series bellhousing.

So this would mean the rb20det box (same as rb30e bar double synchro's on 2nd and 3rd) would be a goer too?

Cheers,

Dan
