Hi Guys,

Was just wondering I have been told that it's very easy to get a R34 GT-R 6spd Box to fit in a R32 GT-R with a RB26, and I was wondering if this is the case with an RB26/30 or if it requires a fair bit of mucking around.

Any information you guys could give me would be most appreciated, also would you say that the R34 GT-R box would be good for 450-500awkw or that would be a stretch?

Cheers

Nope wont hold the power reliably.

Was shown a gearset from the same 6 speed box the Supras use, gearset was about 50% wider than in the 34 box as used in the supras.

I was told there is somebody out there that can convert some of the wider gearsets from the supras into the R34 boxes but never asked further about it by the workshop.

That's really interesting. I've never heard that about the wider gears in the supra boxes. Good to know!

Saw it at Edge motorworks, Barry pulled out a Supra gearset and handed me a R34 one and the difrences were staggering.

One of the guys that work there mentioned they heard someone out there was manging to slip some of the Supra gearsets into 34 boxes, dont know which ones or who they were, i might ask next time im in there.

Please do, will be keen for the result

have lined up a 34 GTR box to go in my 32, would have been fine at the initial power levels. but now we are shooting for 700whp so i may encounter some issues

Does OS do a gearset for the getrag ?

I've looked at the PPG gearset for my getrag, $9,990 plus fitting and you have to have or get a getrag to fit it to, when for $16,000 you can get OS88, so by the time you buy a getrag and the gearset and have it fitted you would be better for paying the bit extra and get the OS88, or if you have one sell it

If you use the original Nissan 5sp, (FS5R30A) and get a ppg gear set, it will take a bit of abuse!

They're about $3200 for a gear set plus install and bearings etc. Lookup the ppg site, they have heaps of info on the stuff they sell.

No they are not $3200 for a ppg gear set..if they were everyone would have them.

A PPG gearbox will owe the the best part of 8-10k depending on what ratio's/billet mainshaft/forks etc you choose.

Wow have they gone up in price! That's what we paid for a set in our r33 drift car, and about $1100 on top for bearings and some bits from Nissan.

but this was about 2 years back.

      Rear subframe stay bracket bolt removal issues

      By DatsunBanana 路 Posted

      Thanks everyone for the replies and suggestions. Got the seats out (hoping I could find some existing grommets but no such luck). By tapping and measuring etc. I could figure out where I could drill through if needed. But first I borrowed an inspection camera and managed to go through factory holes in the chassis rail and could see that the captive nut was holding steady which is why it could retighten. So it was indeed a stripped section of thread, so I applied downforce by levering the bolt head with a screwdriver and went slowly back and forth until it came out. Camera helped a lot cos I could monitor that the captive nut was holding tight. Now I just have one very seized main subframe nut to tackle 馃槄

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      BOVs do have a purpose, if you ever log pressure before and after the throttle body, you will see a spike pre throttle on lift off from a WOT condition. Enough to bend throttle blades / damage e-throttle motors or simple assist in blowing off cooler pipes. FWIW, the above on really applies to those running at least 2 bar of boost. OP shouldn't have an issue, on the other hand, here are some videos of my shit box over a decade ago with some succulent dose with the airbox on and off. That shit box is unrecognisable these days 馃珷

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Yeetus 路 Posted

      I've tried all different combinations of BOVs/ no BOV and stock bypass valves over the years, on gear changes the stock bypass valve seems to get the car back on boost quicker because in part the turbos wheel speed isn't being slowed down by reversion, although they have issues holding boost much over the stock setting. Most aftermarket BOVs you can adjust the spring, tighter will make it open later and close sooner, but in my experience it'll cause a bit of flutter at low load/rpm anyway. I've also got some input into this whole no bov causing turbo wear, never had an issue on any on my turbos HOWEVER, I got my R33 GTST with 200k kms on it, with from what I can see still has the original turbo, no lateral shaft play but has about 4-5mm of play in and out which to me seems like a worn thrust bearing from years (100-150k kms?) of turbo flutter running no bov, so maybe there is some truth to it in the long run. But that'll never stop me loving the Stutututu while I have the car.   OP just wants to know if he can run a atmo vented BOV with no major issues and the answer is YES, plenty of people do it, there's no harm in installing it and seeing how it runs before spending $$$ on an aftermarket ecu, last time I bought a Nistune it was $2400 for install and a tune , unsure of todays prices but you get me. Crazy money to spend just to fix the minor inconvenience of stalling that can be overcome by letting the revs come down to near idle before putting the clutch in or a little bit of throttle to avoid it. You're better off leaving the ecu and tune for after a bigger turbo/injectors have been installed to take full advantage of the tune and get your moneys worth.   Let OP have his Whoosh sound without trying to break his bank haha

      I see you missed the rest of the conversation where they have benefits, but nothing to do with avoiding breaking turbos, which is what the aftermarket BOV made all the fan boys, tuners, and modders believe was the only purpose for them...

      But they do so for the other reasons to have a compressor bypass. It's in the name.
