Hi peeps, my gtr gear change 1,2,3,4,and 5 has been grinding two days ago. Sometime i find it hard to get to gear one.

I notice the grinding gear change only happans when i drive for more then 1 hour.

So what could it be? do i need to change gearbox oil?

if so, what kind of oil should i use and how do i change the oil.

THANKS GUYS!!!

Sounds like it could be clutch related issue if its every gear and also engaging 1st. Get your clutch checked out.

Does the clutch feel OK? Check clutch fluid level.

Make sure the clutch hydraulics are in good conditon and getting good travel at the slave cylinder.

You can check gear oil but i doubt it will be the cause.

Thanks for the reply deren. I dont think it could be the clutch, press the clutch down and change gear is fine, but once i drive pass 1 hour thats when it happans to grind or hard to shift. After rest the car for 10min, back to driving again everything seem to be fine after 1 hour same sht happan again. :rofl:

      I use the flattest and most level piece of concrete I have. And then I shim the tyres on the low side of that with sheets of plywood to level the car. The right amount is easily found with a 2m straight edge and a level or digital angle finder. I use both the spirit level and the same digital angle finder I use to measure the camber. Gives a zero check on the angle finder right at the start.

      Turbo to suit 600whp

      By Blakeo · Posted

      Hi guys,  I'm chasing a recommendation for a turbo charger to suit 600whp.  Engine is a RB25 series 2, with rebuilt forged internals with 8.5 comp ratio. Cams are 262/272. I was considering buying a Garrett G30 770 with 0.83 AR, would it be best to get a V band inlet and outlet to suit as I need to buy a 6 boost manifold as well? Thank you.

      Hey Duncan,  What you did with the boot is mint, I'm going to do the same with my R33.  Do you no longer like the R-Chassis?

      Just keep in mind (maybe too late now) that before you go crazy, most driveways aren't flat. This _can_ affect your dynamic camber and heights too. It is kinda funny but getting people to really align stuff right can be problematic for people with OCD. Consider a motorsport place if there's any around, and also consider you may have 'dynamically' altered your own camber after a visit to the track, which can happen too.

      So I got some fresh Kuhmo 275's on the back to replace the crap that came on this set of wheels and put them on with the front street'ers too. But man I was getting crazy rubbage on the rear passenger side which is odd as the previous crap was 275 also and was on there before I added my extra camber. The semi's are also a *fat* 265 and had no rubbing. I noticed that the camber left and right was pretty different. Very little on the passenger side. My magnetic camber tester on uneven ground showed roughly -1.75 on drivers side and less than -.5 on the passenger side.   It would have been like this on the track day. :( I adjusted the passenger arms to be as close to the drivers as I could get by eye. I then used my new fender roller to make some extra space but holy crap the folds on the guards are made from battleship steel! I couldn't get much rolled at all, they were so strong. My alignment is now off with a 30 degree turn in my steering wheel. I'll find a new alignment joint I think. Not only did the last place think my speed sensor cable zip tied to the camber arm was a brake line, they didn't zip tie them back after they aligned it which was pretty poor. Happy I noticed and did it before the track. Looks like they couldn't match left and right either.   Gave the old girl a bath and I'm always so happy with how she polishes up.
