Hey all,

I have a 92 R32 gtr that has had an engine and gearbox transplant before I purchased it. The donor car was another R32 but don't know what year. I had always worked on the assumption that it would of been an older R32. However last night I discovered I have a pull type clutch. Meaning the gearbox would of been from a R32 made after 2/93 (thats when clutch type changed over). I have heard that the oil pump drive was changed on the 93 models but does anybody have any firm dates? Would my car most likely have the longer or shorter drive?

Thanks

Hey mate, thanks for the reply. Was planning on either getting an R33/34 crank or a collar once this engine started to get tired. I was going to start collecting parts now in preperation for the rebuild. I guess the only way to be sure would be to pull the crankshaft seal. Might have to bite the bullet and get motivated.

Thought I would give it a shot in the off chance somebody could confirm the change over build date and save myself some work. In other words... I am lazy.

      Questions on potential new purchase

      Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers

      Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.

      Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
