Can anyone help with an R32 GTR early (91) transfer case?

Hi All

Have a suspected blown transfer case, just wondering if anyone can help either with:

1) has or knows of one for sale in good condition and compatible year model (would also consider entire gearbox at the right price if not wanting to separate)

2) knows where and how much to buy one new

3) knows of where to get a reconditioned one

Would really appreciate any advice.

Whereabouts are you?

They are easily rebuild-able by a shop that is familiar with them, and any 32 xfer case should be interchangeable. Infact I think a 33 or 34 would also work but am not sure.

Also, is your car Australian or unusual, 91 GTRs were not available for import as Nissan were selling them locally 91-93?

And finally...why do you think yours is borken?

Hey there

Thanks for the reply. I'm in the ACT. Mine is a grey-market import from some years ago, imported originally under the 15 year rule (hence the 91).

The advice on the transfer case is that it may be rooted due to running different rolling diameter tires front to rear.

I've been told there are different model xfer cases from year to year so trying to get something as close as possible to my year model.

If anyone knows an actual shop that will rebuild one (or sell outright, or on exchange) I would be super grateful if you could give me the details. Preferably Canberra or Sydney, but at this point will consider anywhere.  Apparently there are increasingly few shops that deal with them.

Just spoke to Award, they indicated that it's going to be properly expensive to get a full rebuild, and have suggested finding a good condition second-hand unit from an r32.

I have a call in with Just Jap, but does anyone on the forum have a second-hand transfer case sitting around that is in usable condition?

Thanks for the tip - managed to get in contact with John to pick one up on Friday, so hopefully can get the 'R back on the road relatively soon.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
