Broken Gear Box

[Dohmar]

Theyre the strongest out of all the models of skyline, but then they also modified the gearboxes when the s2 r33 gtr was released (double synchros, stronger 3rd gear)...

Standard GTR boxes are good for around the 500hp mark, after that you run the risk of stripping 3rd, which is where the ppg and os giken kits come into effect. For dans use tho, I think a standard 3rd gear out of any late GTR box will be enough - unless he wants to spend the $5k on the osgiken gearset..

-D

What? I thought 32 GTR boxes were renouned for being super-strong?

[Krishy]

alright nit kids just spend the $$ on an OS Giken gearset and then you wont be able to complain what so ever

[Weezy]

Don't the OS gearsets make your car a fvcken cop to drive?

pretty sure Dan has a twin plate button, OS gearset wouldnt be too much harder, haha.

Im just trying to hold off on the smashed box jokes.

i have been wondering why you havnt posted one yet lol

[Weezy]

The Nismo copper mix twin plate clutchs, one of which Dan is running make for an exremely streetable clutch,

If I had the coin - Thats the clutch I'd go for.

BIT-SUS, whas the PPG gearset like to drive with?

His twin plate is a piece of piss

Blue32 has 400kw with standard 32GTR box. Nuff said!

[Madaz]

Andrew has also run 300 through a RB20 box Andrew is a mechanic that KNOWS how to look after shit cause it cost a lot to repair

[Weezy]

RB25DET box's and RB26DETT box's are the same, just with a transfer case smashed on.. What else is there lol?

[Madaz]

really Chad

there is basically only a couple of gearboxes nissan built RB20, RB25push RB25Pull seen in late model 32 and all 33 GTR's some late model s2 33's might have the pull type gear box too

does nobody read these days

Nope, you're thinking straight cut gears (PPG, Hollinger)... the os giken gearsets are the same synchromesh gears the stock box has, but made of higher quality metal (with slightly different ratios too)

I've read in other places from SAU that the GTR gearbox is the strongest of the lot steve, can you point us towards any documentation that says otherwise? The 25 has the same gear ratios as the gtr but not the same xfer case, aside from common gears I dont know if theres any other differences in the running gear, aside from the previously mentioned mods that were applied to s2 33 gtrs

not sure Ben just something i heard along my skyline travels

there are however exceptions to every rule see mention of Andrew aka Blue32

that thing is a beast of unknown nature.....nuff said

[Dohmar]

25 boxes probably are just as tough as the gtr boxes if they do use the same gears, they'd also have the added bonus of fitting a rwd car better than the gtr xfer case... for street driving the boxes should hold up quite decently, but if ur gonna give the car a good working out with a beefy engine i suppose thats when you go to osgiken or dog boxes ;P I'd love the os giken kit tbh but theyre $5k per set...
