Broken transfer case chain... snapped and punched through the casing at 7 km/h.

Dose anyone have a breakdown parts diagram/picture of the transfer case?

Has anyone ever seen this? Are there any common faults to look for?

Car specs: 33 GTR- 860 odd bhp, stock box/case, 2.6 forged with a single billet precision turbo and supporting mods. Street tyres, some spirited driving and lots of dyno time (box number 3).

Any advice or the parts break down diagram would be great.

Cheers

Justin

well..I've broken a transfer case chain too, but I've never heard of anyone else doing it.

In my case the xfer case had just been rebuilt, took it racing at targa and the 4wd slowly failed until the chain broke/smashed the box selector so I had to retire.

I assume that the clearences in the rbuild were incorrect causing some sort of bearing to fail and seizing the FWD portion of it, which in turn broke the chain next time I launched.

There are a couple of places around who can rebuild them, but I just chose to get a seoncd hand one for about $400 and not touch it, has been running fine for 2 years of racing since :happy:

Hey mate, the part number for the chain is 3315205U00. It's about 600 bucks new. I'm redoing a transfer case at the mo and there's probably a few more things you'll need to look at, but I reckon the hole in the case might be a issue. Def cheaper to get a second hand one for about 200- 400. If you want more info on the case internals and part numbers let me know.

AWD Dyno

Update: Car is getting a new plenum and individual tb... going for 900 at the wheels.

AWD dyno kills the attessa as you've just found out.

You need to run it in RWD mode on the dyno to prevent drivetrain issues. Sure it works for a short time but in the end they don't like it. I pull the fuse i the boot :rant:

      Thanks Santa (the neverending trials of the 400,000klm, 400kw, RB30, manual swapped Stagea)

      So, how do you feel about the Frenchys surge tank setup @Duncan? Have you had a chance to try it out more? The sketchy wiring in my fuel pump setup has decided to melt and die and I'm looking for a solid replacement now. My fuel hat is toast so the Frenchys kits providing it all look promising.

      Exhaust silencers/varex exhausts

      By PotatoCake · Posted

      Yeh... literally every time i jump on a forum, see an instagram post or see an engine bay at a car show, i get an idea and add it to my 'to do' list. So what started off as, hey can u just make a couple of intake hard pipes because my dumbass bought the wrong apexi kit, blew out into a 2 week job including braided brake lines & custom bash kit for the front lip haha.  Getting Luke from A4E engineering to make a full custom exhaust with a controllable aes dump valve so i can actually switch between quiet and loud, because right now its just loud all day every day. Then after that go and get the tune redone flex e85 & 98 as i get bugger all milage from e85, makes going for longer drivers difficult

      Car looks clean as. You ended up getting quite a bit done 😂  So what's the plan for the exhaust?

      Rb25det vs Rb25de rods and crank are same?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The only Neo rods that were any different to any other RB25 rods were the DET ones, and they were the same as RB26. Here is a Neo DET rod. O5U part number visible. Here is a post in a thread here on SAU with evidence from someone who has done this before. There are photos in the thread of normal RB25 rods.

      Magnetic Drain Plug Snapped in Half

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Sure, but why assume that will be the case forever? And why assume you'll be able to do an oil change to swap back to a stock drain bolt before that happens? And does it even matter when I change the oil at fairly short intervals? Life can be funny sometimes and unexpected things can happen. Like breaking a collarbone so you can't do any work on your car for a few months but the oil change is due so you have to take it to somewhere and hope they don't do something stupid like stacking the new drain plug washer on top of the old one.
