Maintaining/servicing Ppg Gearbox?

[R32 Driver]

Hey guys,

searched but couldnt really find any info

Does anyone know how often you have to service/maintain a PPG gearbox?

and what is involved/replaced on these services?

Thanks

hey mate

i e mailed ppg direct a while back regarding a ppg dog box for my r32, i was told by them that the gearbox's need to be pulled down and inspected EVERY 12 months and at that point the 2nd and 3rd gear dog rings would need replacing and posibly 2nd and 3rd gear themselves, just the parts add up two about $1000.

then you have labour to pull the box in and out if you cant, so will add up.

he did say that you could just drive it till it played up if you wanted but they didn't recommend it.

hope it helps, if not look on www.ppgearbox.com and e mail them about the kit you want

EVERY 12 months

did they mention how many km?

Really? I have just found out that the SR20 gearset fits inside the HCR32 GTSt gearox casing so interested. But not if this is the sort of dollars for upkeep.

What if you dont go for a full dog box? Is maintenance still an issue?

ring ppg themselves. the number is on their website... www.ppgearbox.com.au. Sr20 kits are only rated to 500-600 hp and gtst kits are rated 1000-1200hp, so i wouldnt bother trying to save $1000 between the two kits for the underpowered sr kit.

because they are refering the gtst box as a 33 one.. 32 uses a smaller box same as sr20

rang PPG about servicing

they said can range from 10,000kms to 40,000kms

really depends on the driver

yeah, mine probably f**ked. 2nd-3rd is just a pain.... but it was secondhand and i learnt to use it aswell.
