Converting R34 Pull Clutch Trans To Push

[Simon-S14]

currently running a 33 box behind my neo RB25 (in an S14) and i want to put a R34 gearbox in there. now the box is pull type and i already have a brand new push clutch. whats involved in making the 34 box push type?

cheers

good question! I've converted a few 33 gtr ones to push, very easy. unbolt the front cover from a push box and bolt it onto a pull box (new gasket needed). tap 2 holes (available on the casing) for the slave cylinder, and off you go!

but the 34 will probably have a different front plate for the geabox.

im hoping it doesnt... if so. then i may look at swapping the whole bell housing over

hmm.... sounds to me like u paid ALOT for this clutch?

i now have this gearbox and wanting to do the same thing.

i checked nissan fast and it looks like the front plate and bellhousing can come off without messing up the internals of the box.

ill check fast tonight to see if the front plates are the same, if not ill have to ring nissan and see what they have availible to buy ....

then tap/die and bolt on .....

Did you get to the bottom off this? Can you grab a front cover off an r33 to fit to the r34 and tap some holes and mount the r33 slave?

From the reading I did when doing my manual conversion you'll need to swap over the bellhousing to change from pull to push.

There may be some pointers in this thread: http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/139916-diy-r34-manual-conversion-using-r33-parts/

It might be tidier to sell the clutch and buy a pull type. That way you could onsell the old 33 box too.

Thanks .. I've got an r34 gtt manual just wanted to look at the push type clutches and fit one of those instead if the conversion wasn't that difficult

Here is pic of how R34 GTR 6speed box with push kit os giken setup look like it to push triple plate os giken clutch

Just for the record this os giken clutch is loud.... when car is in neutral it sound like r35 gear box and twice louder but once you push the clutch it go away.. and when in gear.
