does a rb20det gearbox speedo cable reach a rb25det series 2 gear box if not how do u get around it? and the series 2 rb25det gearbox i'm sure was electronic. I'm looking at putting a rb25det gear box in my r32 as the rb20det boxes are piss weak.

on the shaged box you have will you seperate the seedo worm drive, if so how much?

All of you guys who have killed RB20 boxes - Do you still have them and would you be willing to sell me the neutral switch?

I've got a whole box in melbourne. 2nd is stuffed. I'd sell if for 50 bucks and you can pick the bits you want. speedo worm drive? is that the gear and conector for the speedo? Think I got it?

Mate I'm up in Newcastle so I obviously can't call round in person. The neutral switch is a cigarette lighter sized bit that simply screws out of the side of the box. Would you be able to post it up to me. Obviosly I'll pay post.

Is it the thing that contains the speedo gear?

    • A little more work this week.  Fitted astra power steering pump in the boot with a lowe fabrication bracket. Gave the pump a good clean, fitted Anderson plug and high pressure fitting. With the intercooler being flipped under rad support factory headlights weren't going to work. Ordered a set of origin battle lights, they arrived so got them test fitted. Will require some fiddling to fit nice but was an easy quick option for now. And today we pulled out the manual Rb gearbox and test fitted a ZF 8HP50. It will fit with some casting tabs cut off and small tap of the tunnel with a hammer. Pick up the adapter plate Wednesday so hopefully all bolted in Friday and measure for tailshaft which will be a 2 piece. Been doing a lot of ecu, pdm and tcu loom design so when comes to wiring it in a few weeks will all go smoothly.
    • FYP. Sadly. Even bolt cutters wouldn't take 2 sec. But in the days of 18v angle grinders, nothing is safe.
    • One piece driveshaft I would recommend a dual CV setup otherwise stick to OEM. I have heard most one piece driveshafts cause excess vibration otherwise. The transmission grind I'm quite familiar with. You can try shockproof gear oil, otherwise you need a new transmission. The shifter is extremely simple on these cars. If you want pull apart the assembly and replace the plastic bushing but I doubt that fixes anything. The tail light issue is very common, unfortunately new tail lights are long discontinued. The trunk antenna going up always is because your radio doesn't have a true power antenna control, just remote amp power signal. There is a blank switch plate that you can pop out and install a switch for this or alternatively source a head unit that has proper antenna control. Throttle body sticking you have to disambiguate by disconnecting the cable and seeing if the linkages are the problem or something else. There is a procedure to adjust them, refreshing them is also somewhat involved if that's the issue. I have dealt with many of these issues. Old cars really are fractals of problems. The more you fix the more you discover there is to fix.
    • Welp, you've got a long list of experiences right there. I'd say you're on the right path.
    • That's correct, suits my requirements a bit better. Sure there are also numpties there, however it's generally a different vibe and more my kind of vibe.
