CD009 into R33 Skyline


Recommended Posts

Hi guys, I have a R33 that I've swapped a Neo into and is making just shy of 600rwhp.

I haven't had the usual 3rd gear issue, but I have snapped 2 input shafts. 

I'm considering going cd009, doing research I found the input shaft is the same size (spline from cd will fit into a rb clutch) but I believe where it benefits is it doesn't step down to a smaller size after the spline - this is where they always break. 

Having a 6th gear would be nice too. My question is, are the cd gearboxes really that much stronger than a skyline 5 speed? 

Also which adapter kit would I be best off looking at? I'm thinking about the JWT kit with a CBF mid mount shifter. 

I'd just need to fabricate my own cross member and have a shop modify the tailshaft.

There is one guy on here who has done it using i believe the collins kit. Have heard that the collins one is dogshit.

Fisch racing are making a complete replacement bellhousing solution ala Mazworx SR20 style which i am very interested in.

Have heard one good review about the JWT kit, i think @LaurelPWR is using one on his car.

How are you snapping input shafts on a R33 box with only 600hp? I would be more concerned there's another issue.

This guy raise a very good point. The norm is the output shaft brakes from loading up the drive train to fast. Input shaft would be hard gear changes and shocking the box when you dump it

I stopped using the stock box at 600hp but mine was due to 3rd gear not wanting to play with the other gears very well.

@Yonz has a CD009 box in, however no idea if he's around here anymore.

Everytime its been clutch kick in 4th gear at about 150kph, solid center clutch and welded diff - its expected.

As far as the t56 manual swap goes I've looked into it and the ratios are no where as ideal as the cd009, also the shift quality is junk have you ever tried to shift a tremec past 6500rpm? They don't.

In before anyone else, Samsonas.

Haha there's no way I'm spending $20k aud on a gearbox with only 600rwhp I still want to street drive it. 

Come on boys must be someone active here who is running a tr6060 or cd009 behind their rb, I want a clean install. The JWT kit looks so janky with the cut off bellhousing. 

At the moment the rod shop kit looks the best.

CD009 Rev 2 with external slave cylinder has been proven and documented to take 1000HP... keep in mind that this particular box is alot less common over the many many many 350/g35 boxes over the 8 years that were made different with alot of slight revisions.

What is dog shit with the Collins kit? 

 

Can't find an rb25 box , not even on Yahoo so need as a fix and the CD009 makes sense with a bit of bashing

    • The best part of my setup is, we only have two sites. Our head office where I'd put every thing has plenty of internet capacity. We're on a 200/200 dedicated fibre. Even better, there's only like 6 people in the office at most, and the other office has 2 people in it (likely 3 soon). The majority of our work is in a custom piece of software, as it is part of the backend of the system we provide to customers. For our arrangement, on prem would be wayyyyy easier, and a VPN tunnel site to site is easy for me to manage. Scaled at many many sites, or quite a few hundred employees it's starts getting a bit different for all people outside the head office. However, everything in the cloud becomes worse for the people who operated previously at the site that held the servers, as now they're at the mercy of their internet, and not GBPS internal network (f**k the idiots who hook a desktop PC up on WiFi or permanently sit at a desk using a laptop and don't go remotely with it).   It really does come down to the business needs and structure as to what is best. For us, 365 is mainly being moved to for office apps, moving email from Google to Exchange, and setting up "Active directory". Otherwise we have a ticketing system with support that runs on our own cloud system, or the sales process sits in a CRM we pay for. My biggest push back for having most of the shit turned off and saying no when people want new shiney things is "that won't meet our security requirements, or efficiency gains, so all you're requesting is money spend to open us up to security issues, or to make our staff less efficient" Which is funny when one of our core values is "To do more, with less"
    • Think of it as a fancy iFrame with the auth passed through to PowerBI as you're already authenticated logged into Teams   I'm the complete opposite, I hate everything on Prem, it's slow as shit, you need VPNs to get anything happening, then when you want on-prem DBs to talk to say PowerBI you need to install/setup data gateways to essentially VPN back into your SQL instance. I suppose from my perspective, on-prem sucks, but from an infrastructure perspective, your environment is somewhat air gapped to the web via your firewall(s), etc.   The curse of knowledge, the more you know the more you suffer. Farken philosophical shit.
    • Would you mind uploading the pics again in your steps?  It’s not showing up. 
    • Wherever you ask them to. I had one added to the crossover pipe near the BOV as well as the hot and cold sides of the intercooler piping to provide greatest flexibility in measuring temperatures post-turbo. I have the IAT installed in one, and bungs in the other two.
