Can anyone tell me the dimensions of the Z32 TT manual box ?

Im looking for the length from the centre line of the shifter position, to the end of the box MINUS the bellhousing.

reason being i mite be getting an R33 skyline box for free, and was thinking about converting my car to manual using that box, but need to know if it will fit first :)

Swap the bell housing from a manual VG gearbox to the RB gearbox and I'm led to believe it fits straight on with only minor modifications. Don't take that as gospel though.

yes they do fit, that i know :D

im just concerned about length, as the vg box has an external shifter mech, the Rb box is internal, and im just wondering where the shifter would sit if i bolted it up :slap:

if its roughly the same then im one step closer to manual :dance:

I dont know dimensions but If its a R33 GTST (RB25) gearbox then its exact same box as in the 300zx.

Thats for the GTR box ?

 

The immediate problem I see there is that the bellhousings are not removable on the Manual gearbox, they are one piece.

The R33 box is definately not the same as the VG :smash:

As i said the VG has an external shifter, the RB box is internal.

I would aslo need to have a look at props, see if they have the same yoke or whether i need to get one made :duffer:

Sorry, yes your right. I was thinkng they were externally identical as they are both type R30a internals, but having checked its only the Internals that are the same. The shifter linkage and the bellhousing differs, unsure about the input and output splines.

the input splines are the same AFAIK, but i dunno about the output, that will need to be explored :D

I just hope the lengths are the same roughly :smash:
