I have an RB25DET gerbox for sale....

A Mod shop went out of business when the owner died...the landlord was basically clearing ot the shop, and throwing all sorts of stuff in the bin !!!.....I grabbed this RB25DET gearbox, but didnt know its condition.

I then got my mechanic mate to open her up for a quick inspction - I was expecting to be told it was cactus, however he said it looked in excellent condition, and appeared quite new - but that was only a visual inspection inside...nohing munched or broken.

So, I am keen to sell it to help me fund my new project...but for piece of mind for anyprospective buyer, I am happy to hold on to your cash for 5 days untill you have time to fit and confirm all is ok..if not, then bring it back and Ill hand your cash back - no problem.

Basically, I was going to pull my gearbox out of my Datto and road test it myself before selling it, however this is a much easier option for me.

Price is $900 firm, with a FULL refund guarantee if its buggered, but Im pretty sure its good. If your gearbox is already out...then its worth a shot !

No Longer for Sale !...I now have a proper Transmission Jack, so will be fitting this into my RB25DET Datto to finally see what condition its in. I will sell it with confidence after Ive done this (If its good obviously)!

    • Not noticeably. Arguably, the catless turbo is going to work harder in a different direction, as it will spool up faster, go to higher speeds more easily. Only if it was tuned in the original condition. If it was a stock tune, using the AFM before and after the cat/dump change, then no, no retune needed. If the car is running on a MAP sensor, then it might well benefit from a retune. It might even run a little dangerously without a retune, but it could quite easily be fine.
    • We had this blend that uses 98RON + 10% Ethanol which brought it to 100RON. It's no longer available anymore unfortunately.
    • Does it make a difference in your turbo having a shorter life if you have a cat converter as it causes that back pressure versus less/no back pressure with a decat? (Not sure if this is accurate) Also slightly different question if you went from a oem cat to a decat or vice versa will it require a tune? I heard if you change the dump pipe onwards it requires a tune?
    • No. Have only gotten as far as contemplating the task of having to put in the required fairly heavy wiring and fusing to run it (along with the big alternator), and preferring not to. But otherwise, it would be nice to have a little extra freedom as to exactly where the compressor is located and free up some space around the exhaust side of the engine.
    • Following from this in a related by not closely-related sense... Because I was buying a bunch of other GKTech stuff, I got some rear subframe collars. The history that leads up to this is: 25+ years ago the car arrived into the country with stock subframe bushes. At some point shortly thereafter I added Whiteline pineapple rings, set up neutral, and it improved the rear end behaviour. Well, it is my vague memory that I was happier with it with them in. Less axle tramp on launches, generally better, etc etc. ~2012 it got a new non-HICAS subframe with new stock bushes. No pineapple rings. I reckon that ever since then I've been dissatisfied with the axle tramp. Recently I've been f**king around a lot with all aspects of the suspension. One contemplation has been to relocate the rear lower control arm front mount points (and do the other things needed to make that work) to improve longitudinal rear grip by getting rid of some of the stupid anti-squat that Nissan ladled into the R32. But.... before doing that I thought I'd put some collars in. And.... The collars are good. The rear sounds a little bit different, but there has been no significant increase in NVH coming up into the body. In terms of rear behaviour - expansion joints on long sweeping elevated freeway ramps that would sometimes cause the rear to jiggle around a bit, no longer seem to do so. It appears that jamming chunks of metal into the gaps in the rubber so they can't move much is a really good thing. And the launch behaviour and general forward traction situation seems to be greatly improved too. It's impossible to be really sure, because the tyres are completely shagged - they are freakishly willing to let go right now. But as an A-B test with the same tyres it certainly seems to grip up a lot better. Highly recommended to anyone who still has stock bushes.
