Basically I've had a couple of friends tell me that the r34 gtt has a 5 speed version of the gtr's getrag gearbox, but i was under the impression that it was pretty much the same as the r33 25det gearbox (and some of the stuff i've read here points that wasy as well).

So...

1. Which actually is it?

2. Will the redline shockproof be okay for it.

3. Will it handle the 300 rwkw i plan to put through it (with a C's short shifter installed as well).

Also, if anyone can recommend a diff oil for the 34 gtt as well that would be good.

The R34GTT box is the same as the R33 GTST one, i use them in most conversions as they are low mileage and it gives a little more headroom in the punishment area. We run shockproof in our boxes also. car makes over 300rwkw. I hate short shifters though and refuse to use them, a GTR shifter with the metal ball end is my pick for an improvement.

I also hate pull clutches so i fit push type GTR bellhousings to the GTT boxes.

The casing is much lighter than the R33 ones. I use lightweight shockproof in mine with 270rwkw no probs. Also my box had 200,000+ k's on it before it got into my car.

It has a small problem which I know others have had in that when shifting fast from 4th to 5th at redline (well at any revs really) you can put it into a no mans land between 3rd and 5th gears where it crunches badly. I have had to slow my changes there cos I don't want to blow the box.

Short answer, no nothing like the getrag from the R34 GTR, very much like the R33 GTST.

Can you swap an R34 GTT bellhousing with the R33 GTS-T one mated to the R34 gearbox so that it becomes a push type (just thinking of my rooted gearbox) (also have I got my theory right that this can be done)

yeah i hate pull clutches, so i fit push type housings all the time.

How? Do you cut the bell housings off? How do you reconnect them?

nah they just unbolt, here is a SR20 box that i have removed the bellhousing. RB boxes are the same design.

I have heard of the brand but never actually seen one in a vehcile. Or being used.

Obviously at idle with your foot off the clutch the only thing thats turning is the input shaft and lay shaft. The rest of the gear set should be unloaded and spinning on their needle rollers happliy.

I have found my Cross mission box to be getting a bit noisy despite being a helical cut set.

    • I swear at my GKTech ones every time I have to take them apart and replace a spherical. But I wouldn't swap them for anything else. They absolutely slay every other option, at least in terms of how they actually work. You sure you don't want to live with bearings? I mean, they don't have "ball bearings". They are rod ends and sphericals throughout. Tough as nuts, even though I have found more than one way to wear them out.
    • From when I was looking at getting the 86 engineered for the turbo, the joint said to put in a few euro 5 or 6 cats, then tune the car on a nice clean E85 tune When I was looking at a turbo for the MX5, it was basically the same thing, a couple of cats and a nice clean tune Although, it will depend on the year of the Jeep IRT emmisions standards required, and what mods are done, especially if it has a newer engine installed that requires a higher Euro
    • Yeah - but it's not actually that easy. There are limits for HC, CO, NOx and particulates. Particulates shouldn't be a concern in any petrol engine unless trying to comply to the very latest Euro standard. But getting a tune right so that all the others stay within limits AT THE SAME TIME is not a trivial exercise. You couldn't possibly get it right by just guessing at the tuner's dyno, unless he had a 4 gas analyser up the pipe, which is not often the case these days. It used to be. Every decent shop that did "tune ups" (as opposed to tuning) would have a 4 gas analsyer. Perhaps there's still quite a few of them around these days. But most "tuners" are only watching O2 and power readings.
    • Slight segway but the most expensive part of the whole thing which I would have thought would only be required for an engine size/type swap, not a VIV test, is emissions testing.  That's when you get into the big bucks.  I can't remember the exact price now but I got quotes for the GT-R based on swapping to RB30 (not that anyone bothers doing it legally anymore...) and it was around $4500 just for that alone.  The guy that does them manipulates the tune on the vehicle to make sure it passes.  The cheaper option is to book into Kangan Batman Tafe (I think that's where it was) and hire their tester.  Allegedly you're not allowed in there with the car though so not in a position to tweak anything to make sure the vehicle passes.  I'm sure in this day and age of ultra tuneable ECU's you could get the tuner to program a special efficiency (clean) tune that emits the lowest amount of particulates possible that would pass the test.  It might only make 50kW's but as long as it passed who cares!
    • I'm sure he has left signs, or, he is looking down, laughing That's my cunning plan for when I leave, lots of half finished projects, with no rhyme or reason of where I was actually up to, just to keep everyone on their toes
