hi there im tom from the uk

can i first of by saying wow some amazing cars on here and keep up the good work.

i own a nissan gtir any way some of you my no what one is as there are quite rare in the us i belive.

any way they use sr20s and are rapid, but there gearboxes are pants

now im sure the evo box could be used as its close enough.

now im looking for some deatailed pics or the bell housing etc or if any one has some techniacal drawings of the gear boxes

im looking at evo 4 upwards as 123 are mounted opisite side.

what size clutch do they use and pics of fly wheels etc

any eay her she is the little slag in question

 

Would be far cheaper to put in a PPG Gearset.

 

not for 3k plus its the housingn that shatters weater u put in ppg quaife or what ever

 

what i know most of the owners in jamaica do is well brackets/plates at different sections on the gearbox which work pretty well but as you and i know they eventually break again, will try and get some info on this for you.....

 

I'm aware of the casing breakages. But as stated above, you can brace the box to prevent this.

Running a box from an evo, will pose many problems. Ratio's being the main one, and thats after you've adapted it.

In all honesty, for the hassle, I would just sell the car and buy an evo.

 

I had the pleasure of meeting one in person. I agree that you should sell it and find yourself evo . I was very disappointed in the GTIR. The drive was unipressive to say the least. Evo drives ten times nicer. GTIR = terrible soft chassis for bone crunching ride, weak trans, very weak valvetrain. Cool on paper....but evo is the real McCoy.

 

Hey, I know that house...

 

if you can locate a gearbox from the sunny b13 gts 4wd attessa, that can work and is a bit stronger than the gti-r box, the bolt up same only difference is that the bellhousing is smaller, and uses same everything.

 

cheers for the info guys lot of help. i would love an evo, id want the 9 tho and at the moment iom not in the financial situ to get one
