Pretty sure the r33 non turbo's use an r32 turbo gearbox... And no one can put an expiry date on a gear box. If your redlining the car, i would be more worried about the motor than the gear box.

motor seems ok so far no noises except when its cold it is a bit loud and has a few noises but once its warm its fine never done anything with a rb engine i had a s13 with a sr20 and it got punished and never let me down can sr20 take more then a rb?

you just got lucky with the sr20. both the sr and rb motors are good, but constant abuse is going to cause something to fail eventually. all it takes is a minor weakness in 1 part to have it let go and destroy an engine. i think maybe you should show a bit of mechanical sympathy and keep your boy racer antics off the street. people in imports redlining it all the time are the reason why import owners are targetted as hoons.

    • Good to see your rotors appear as rusty as mine šŸ¤Ŗ
    • Took it for a drive to do some logs, Iā€™m pretty sure my voltage issues and electrical noise issues are gone, Iā€™ve sent a log to Adam and am waiting to hear back with confirmationĀ  att.K23U9eHyiEJxixH6y1__GQfuqK0EgIoDgQFTs9G8x_w.mp4 Ā  idle video from that day just becauseĀ 
    • Went looking at mine, reading off the tyre, presumably these are 1st week of 2003. Still hold air (I haven't had to pump them up in over 12 months!) Ā  Ā  I couldn't quickly find the date on the front tyres, they were fitted around 2008 to the rims, so probably not quite as old, but they have a lot more dry rot cracks in them. Still hold air.
    • I am now intrigued to go check the dates on the tyres on my Skyline... We need a game of who has the oldest tyre still holding a car up, and successfully holding air (for longer than a 2 weeks I feel is successful air holding). Ā  I feel your tyres may be beating mine
    • Ok, still waiting for a date to get the cams installed on the MX5, why so long, because MX5 Mania has received a few new sets of different cams with different specs for the MZR and are currently trialling them, and working out what is best for 2.5 "powers" with stock internals, in the end if I go bigger than the Kelford stage 1 cams I'll need to look at the valve springsĀ  Hopefully I'll get the news on them next week As for the boot of the car getting fixed, I hopefully pick it up early next week, I was sweating on picking it up yesterday but, meh, it was not to be, so ne weekend cruising for me
