NA to RB26DETT ??

[NA_R33]

Hi all,

Im planing to do this conversion around the middle of next year. But if funds permit i may do it a little earlier. Ill use the GTR rear dif and try get GTR brakes all round. My quetion is what box do u guys recomend as im not doing the AWD conversion i cant use the GTR box unfortunately. How strong is the GTST box? as i want to do everything right the first time so when i have a bit more money down the track i can go for bigger power with fewer issues. Has neone done this conversion or have ne advice to give me it would be greatly appriciated.

Cheers

John

If you can find one, try to get a GTR front-cut, which will have the GTR box and brakes already included. It should cost around $10k. I'm not sure of the amount of work required to get that all to fit into a GTS, but at a guess I would say a lot.

The GTS-t box can handle upwards of 250rwkw.

yeah thats how im gonna do it, but u cant use the gtr box if its only rwd, as im not doing the AWD conversion, so i was just wondering if a gtst box would be alright, what do people use on higher power gtst's for a stronger box?? or would it be nessesary (spelling) as eventually i want to at least get the car into the 11 sec bracket so i wanna do everything right the first time so when i get more $$ for more mods i dont have to change the diff or gearbox.

Standard R33 GTSt boxes are pretty tough should be good for well over 300rwkw, after that perhaps a second hand holinger 6 speed R34 box (if you got a spare 5K) then you need to start thinking dog box.
