Hey people,

Ok was selling my car until a couple days ago i put the car in reverse to get out of the drive way then took off and what a suprise 3,4th and reverse is gone.

I was going to buy a second hand gearbox but i would rather rebuild my own because i know where its been. Ive heard alot of stories where people buy boxes and there just about to go anyway.

So i wanna rebuild the box and i might aswell do the clutch while its all out.

Can anyone tell me whats the best clutch for a gts-t with 300rwkw? Something that will be durable, The car will be street driven but only once a week so not really botheres on a hardcore clutch which will increase the cars performance in anyway possible?

Also if anyone can direct me towards someone who specialises in the rb25det box rebuild? I dont want to just give the box to someone who doesnt really give a shit about it.

Thanks :D

Did the gears blow on you or you just couldn't select/engage them in the first place? It's unusual for three gears to go at once unless you've destroyed the cluster. Try to steer from second hand if you can...you have the right idea...it's very lucky dip, particularly from wreckers who won't warranty the things (can you blame them?).

Either a Jim Berry or an Exedy cushion button IMO.

I actually called this place on botany and the bloke also told me it could be the cluster.

What confuses me now is that i started the car today and it was going into gear fine? (weird). You can tell theres a problem but it was fine.

Compared to the other day ( It was popping out of third, and wouldnt even select 4th then when i would put it in reverse it was like the gear stick was stuck in there and wouldnt come out.)

Either way if im going to have to take the cluster out. I would rather get the box checked and clutch replace. Or am i just on another planet and dont know what the hell im talking bout?

Thanks for your help guys

Hmmm tough call, you have an odd set of symptoms there. Wouldn't know what's wrong with it until you pull the box apart I'm afraid. What kind of noises is it making if any? Grinds, whines, rumbles, crunches?
