Broken Gear Box

[BIT SUS]

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

AWESOME.

- Helical synchro, sounds like an F1 car!

not as loud as a straight cut (WHERE'S THAT REX??)

But brilliant. I'm loving the new ratios (1st=90km/h)

Been smashing through the gears for ages now with the Exedy Carbon twin plate,

would highly recommend PPG gearbox. my total bill came in at $9,800 for parts and labour at PPG, and about $900 to R&R gearbox with a new clutch

I went for the

1-5th Helical Synchro kit

Billet selector forks

Billet input shaft

new synchros

new bearings

new seals

4L of Redline Lightweight Shockproof

never looked back.

i dont need a gear box Cosi.....its Dan that needs one for his 32 GTR lol

GTR gearboxes are strong - its high rev gear changes in the lightning quick fashion that kills the syncro which just can't keep up then the gear faces strip with bits of syncro floating around like boat people north of Australia. Mechanical Sympathy is the cheapest way to keep gearboxes together, the tenth of a second you change gears faster by as you reef the gearstick through its gates makes no appreciable difference to your ability to eat other car makes - on a closed circuit of course

That being said the gear ratios and clutchless shifting (talking dogbox) are superior for track work

Hey Krishy because of the revised date for the imports vs domestic dyno day does that give you more time to get your clutch in?

[Krishy]

well the clutch is going in next weekend hopefully...getting my thrust bearings and other stuff tomorrow or friday....also getting the diff done at the same time so should be reasonably good

Typically a clutch is all those brass button can be cushioned with ceramic clutch pads unless you've gone for a carbon one

Steve is correct, internally rb25 and rb26 boxes are pretty much identical apart from the 4wd stuff.

had two side by side not long ago
