i would imagine is would be less than 400 to get it here...tell them to wack it on a pallet and get it couriered to your door. through someone like TNT or HI-TRANS or bluestar..something like that...

a whole car costs around 4-500 to get state to state so i can't image it would cost anymore than that.

Thanks for the reply's people. :P

The reason I was asking is because I can get a brand new gear box from advan in Sydney for $3000 and over here in adelaide nissan wants $3800 but will give it to me for $3400.

therefor if I can get it here cheaper than $400 , the change is in my back pocket not nissan's :w00t:

plus more money towards the clutch

:O

hmmm. thats expensive...have u considered going to someone like ppgearboxes and asking them what strong rebuild with yours would cost? thats alot of money...

To answer your question regarding rebuild cheaper option. You tell me what you would do if a new box cost's $3000 or just for the bearings it will cost $2600. The input shaft is making a racket and you need to get every bearing out to get to it. Plus I've been told redoing the bearing's might not get rid of the noise anyway.

By the way , the car does put out 297rwks and to rebuild properly with ppg would cost $9000-$10000 anyway or a holinger is $20000 approx

    • I was more thinking so it doesn't flop around as much rather than for rotating it. Once you have the balance right, it should rotate well enough, depending on how much resistance there is on the pivot. I think you said the pivot point was on a bearing though didn't you?
    • You can get them with the worm drive rotator but I was too tight to pay another $250-$300 so manual labour it is! I don't think it will be too hard to rotate though. 
    • Sag as in the windows start to slowly open themselves, or they're just slow to go up/down with engine off?
    • It looks like it needs a big worm gear drive on it to control the rotating, not a few sloppy pins!
    • As Duncan said, first there was OBD, which few cars used, then came OBD2.   Now an interesting point, OBD2 isn't even for what you want to do. OBD2 is for emissions testing. There is some sensor data on OBD2, but it's up to the manufacturer what they're putting on it. Most scan tools operate on UDS, which like OBD2 is a standard built on-top of CAN. UDS specifies how to structure a message, what very limited things mean such as "read memory address" but it does not specify what is stored in which memory address, that is all up to the manufacturer. You either a scan tool compatible with that vehicle, or to know how to reverse engineer all the data, which can take a VERY long time and a lot of vehicles to get it right. Oh and then the manufacturer does a firmware update and changes what's where... Ask me how I know that as fact Oh, and by the time you've got the scan tool that supports all the manufacturers stuff, well, you're back at "But a consult cable and the Nissan software" The main difference being most manufacturers software these days works with the same hardware readers, as the readers are built to support J2534 which is another standard for how the PC communicates with the tool to make it do specific things on the car...
