Another kudos order, I actually have a spare Speedo drive. But new is always better

Are they still at the zinc coaters?

When you fit the getrag you need 10mm spacers on top of the gearbox crossmember and I needed bolts that were 10mm longer and I’ve misplaced the originals cause of moving house

I’m thinking of trying skyline spares to grab a second hand set

and I got a new clutch to because of the different input shaft

Did you order the PPG complete or was it just the assembled centre plate and you sourced the housings?

[r32-25t]

I sent them my 5spd without the transfer attached and they sent it back the same way I thought I had posted this photo earlier 

[Shoota_77]

Nice, that's the way to do it! I watched another video where PPG just sent the centre section and the owner had to make a few mods to the housings to make it all fit. Admittedly it was in the States so a costly exercise to send housings over just to have them shipped back again!

I’ve seen that video and it is an option to do, ppg charge to fit the gear set for you but I like the idea of if it wrong I can send it back and get it corrected 

[Shoota_77]

Couldn't agree more. Its not worth stuffing around with for that sort of money! Speaking of which, how much did it cost all up? PM me if you'd prefer.

Can't wait to see vids of flat shifts at 9k rpm!

Got the gearbox bolted to the engine and crossmember

Getting there, I get mine back next week, we should plan a cruise down south, but you’ll have to drive slow so I can keep up. 
the sequential makes a huge difference, you will love it!

Nice bet you’re look forward to getting it. Yeah we should go for a drive and I won’t be able to drive fast cause of the engine pushing water still 

[r32-25t]

Fitted up the shafts, filled with oil and bled the clutch. Now I’m up to making the gear stick look like it belongs there

When old man 32 gtr said I would have to drive slow so he can keep up 

[r32-25t]

This is a factory as I could get it to lookthe wiring is just sitting on the floor to be done later

[Old man 32 GTR]

Looking good, can it be driven yet? 
Did you unstitch the boot? I would have given you mine, the one I used with my PPG. 
Who is setting up the flat shift for you?

it can be driven, just wont have reverse lights or anything else electrical hooked up
the boot was already unstitched from having the getrag in it before
probably will be jem cause they tuned it last time
