BNR34 new gearbox rebuild still making noise is it oil or bad build

Hi guys 

so I when I was building my car thought I go ahead and change bad syncros and the mechanic said I also needed few gears as well.  It's been I year and  1/2 I just never used the car cuz been under restoration and engine build. So I can't go back for Warrenty,  the mechanic rebuild Supra gearbox all day so he suggested to use the Supra gearbox oil from toyota. And  at first driven the car no problem like new.  Then did engine upgrade did dyno but now I come to drive the car I can say been 100 miles on this box and now I hear shine noise when I let go the gas at low speed and plus start grind for some gears. Wtf.  

I even use OS GIKEN thriple plate clutch beside the Clutch noise at  idle. I was told that normal. So I'm ok with that.

but I been reading you guys use different oil on forms. Is my problem oil. Or bad build

thanks

Assuming your mechanic used something like Castrol Transmax Z which is commonly used for Getrag gearboxes in both Supras and 34 GTRs that should be fine.  So it might be something else...  Take it back to the builder and get their opinion.

    • I installed it all myself,  It was really easy to install.  I got a professional to do the degas/gas.
    • Finally had some time after working on other projects to jump back on this thing. Pulled all 4 wheels to check the brakes over and lucked out, only needed to bleed them/change fluid to get everything working!    Took it for its first quick spin (around 2km) up the road and ran great! Sounds like I have a left rear wheel bearing that needs replacing and there’s a shake in the steering wheel but the tires are absolutely junk on this thing and had been sitting flat when I went to first look at the car so we’ll see if that’s the cause.   Tach randomly started working but I notice if my hicas light comes on the tach stops working 🙃 yay for electrical gremlins 
    • Bunnings car park it is! if you buy the kind of dampers with the adjustable top on the strut you can see it, red, purple? So many options.
    • Yeh a meagre benefit, what strut tower brace are you using? Eventually all the suspension and tyres are done and you get to ... meagre benefits. Narrow end of the wedge, all that stuff.
    • Yeh not doing anything with spacers at all, ty for the info
